Can 4 player wear shorts and 5 plyers wear shorts as long as they are the same color and style?

4+5=9
 

Yes, but 9 is the limit on any one team in shorts. All of the subs must wear pants, so we blind umps can keep them separate. :D

db, Is this a trick question? I like Dakota's
witty anwere tho. :D

Sounds like a plumber's team, 4 players with 5 plyers (sp).

Sorry for typing error
 

4 with shorts and 5 with long uniform pants.,

ASA 3.6.B says: <i>All players pants may be long, short, or mixed in style as long as they are the same color.</i>

That pretty much says it all I'm a thinkin'.

Fed rules state that uniforms will be alike in color <b>and style</b>. I interpret this to mean all shorts or all long pants. (Unless it's a JV game where you're lucky if they're all the same color.)
