THJSL
Jewelry Policy
Every year the question about players
and their jewelry comes up.
Here is the THJSL/WSW policy on jewelry
- No earrings, watches, rings, necklaces,
bracelets or wristbands may be worn during play or practice.
- Hair bands, if worn, must be elastic.
- Other articles that may be considered
by the referee to endanger either the player or other players must also
be removed.
- Religous and medical bracelets and
necklaces are not considered "jewelry" but must be taped to the body to
the satisfaction of the referee.
- Failure to obey the referee wil
automatically disqualify the player from participation until the
referee determines the hazard has been resolved.
- In particular, any items -
including medical and/or religous items - which utilize a "stud" to
fasten them to the body are strictly prohibited.
- If the offending item cannot be
removed then the player is not allowed to participate in the game (or
practice).
- This is an absolute and
unchallengeable rule. Do not request any "special waiver" because it
will not be granted.
- Do not berate the referee for
insisting on compliance with this rule.
