Dear Coaches,

Before you all go out and buy/print new uniforms for this year, please be advised of the new USAV rules for uniforms for the 08 season.

Significant rule changes in regards to uniforms for 2007-2008 season

USAV Rule 4.3.3

The players’ jerseys must be numbered in a permanent manner from 1 to 99. Duplicate numbers are not allowed.

USAV Rule 4.3.3.1 a and b

Uniform numbers must be clearly visible and centered on the chest and back. Each jersey must use the same color and number height for all players except the Libero.

USAV Rule 19.2a

It is recommended now and required Nov 1, 2009, that the Libero uniform must be a contrasting color and not include any color from the regular team jersey (excluding the color of the numbers). Color combinations such as purple/black, dark green/black, navy/black, or navy/maroon are not distinctive enough to comply with the rules.”
