http://www.cifns.org/Announcements/2011-2012/FB%20Jersey%20Memo%20-%202012.pdf1. Varsity Only – The State CIF has determined that this rule is applicable to Varsity
team competition only. Sub-varsity teams are not subject to the provision of this rule.
2. Non-Compliance – The State CIF has also determined that teams that do not comply
with the rule will be penalized in the following manner in each and every game:
At the pre-game conference between the Referee and the Head Coach, as required
by current NFHS rules, the Referee will ask the Coach if his team is properly
equipped; after the Coach’s response, the Referee will inform the Coach that,
under NFHS rules, his team is not in legal uniform and that he intends to call a
15-yard Unsportsmanlike Conduct foul on the Coach prior to the start of the
contest. Coaches should also be reminded that if any subsequent
Unsportsmanlike Conduct foul is called on him during the contest, he will be
disqualified from the game.
After the game, the Referee should notify the office of the CIF-Section in which
the offending school is located that the team’s uniforms are out of compliance
with NFHS rules. The section will then notify the school that they must be
compliant with this rule by the start of the 2013 season or they may not be
allowed to play with the illegal uniforms.
