VHSL "uniforms"
 

New VHSL shirts and hats are on the VHSL web site...good news is that they aren't as ugly as the other sports new stuff from Cliff Keen... $$$$ anyone?

Van Halen Softball League?

Virginia High School League....owned and operated by Cliff Keen

Not sure how you access to make a purchase. If you click the CK link on the VHSL website to order, it takes you to the main CK website. But the only state association listed in the drop down menu is South Carolina.

I was thinking Vampires Have Sanguine Likes. ;)

Not too shabby. Much better than what they did to basketball officials.

I guess it's cooler with no back.

Seriously, a vendor forces you to buy new shirts! :( :(

The vendor isn't forcing anything, the VHSL elected to enter into that partnership.

Like down here in Florida with the FHSAA and Honig's. Guess they don't want you to show up to games in worn out uniforms. :)

Hate the flag on the sleeve.....hate the flag on any athletic gear.

§176. Respect for flag
No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor.
• (a) The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.
• (b) The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water, or merchandise.
• (c) The flag should never be carried flat or horizontally, but always aloft and free.
• (d) The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker's desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general.
• (e) The flag should never be fastened, displayed, used, or stored in such a manner as to permit it to be easily torn, soiled, or damaged in any way.
• (f) The flag should never be used as a covering for a ceiling.
• (g) The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.
• (h) The flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.
• (i) The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard. Advertising signs should not be fastened to a staff or halyard from which the flag is flown.
• (j) No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.
• (k) The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.

Yes, the flag code disallows how it's generally used; unless one considers an officiating organization to be a "patriotic organization." It's a stretch.

But it's also unenforceable.

Unenforceable by law; but not by popular demand!

VHSL = Vendor Has State Locked

much better than "Vampires Have Sanguine Likes" and more generally appealing than Van Halen ;)
