However, a bulletin written earlier this year suggested navy or black jackets for cold weather.

For HS ball we're wearing navy for baseball and light blue for softball. No exceptions.

Jackets are to be solid navy only.

I wouldn't mind wearing shorts for early season sub-varsity games. It can be 120 degrees on some fields at the start of the game where I am.

In Trumbull County in Ohio, we ONLY wear knickers on Friday nights. For JV on down, it's shorts and short white socks.

We wear knickers for everything except pre-season scrimmages. I would love the black pants but I'm sure my crew wouldn't change unless it was mandated that we had to.

We must wear knickers on all OSSAA (7 thru 12) football games. Shorts with low white socks are allowed for scrimmages and youth (3 thru 6) contests.

I think the black pants look fine and would be great for cold weather games with the long sleeved shirt.

I am somewhat of a traditionalist and like the knickers.

I'm ready for a change, I like uniform changes. Guess thats why I'm a baseball fan with our 15 shirts!

You know...the more I look at these black knickers, the more I fear looking like a ballet dancer with black leotards.
