Approved:
April 12, 1994; revised February 22, 1999; revised October, 2002, revised June, 2004
Athletic teams wear uniforms primarily so all players,
officials, and spectators can clearly identify which team each player is on.
Additionally, team uniforms promote unity, pride, discipline, and
esprit de corps within the team. It
is with these objectives in mind that the following policies are adopted.
It is the responsibility of each team’s head coach to ensure
compliance with these policies.
Mites, Squirts, Peewees, and Bantam requiring jerseys can
be ordered through the current local sports apparel retailer.
The Initiation Program player’s jerseys can be ordered
through the Initiation manager.
Team colors for all AYHA teams are Red, Black, and White.
Squirt, Peewee, and Bantam levels are required to have a
home and away jersey.
The traveling Mite teams are required to have only a home
jersey.
The Girls teams are required to have only the away
jersey.
The required jersey and legging combinations for AYHA
teams are:
- Home
Jersey: Predominantly white with black and red accents and
white leggings with black and red stripes (New Jersey pattern).
- Away
Jersey: Predominantly red
with black and white accents, and white leggings with black and red
stripes (New Jersey pattern).
The wearing of tattered or unclean jerseys or leggings is not
permitted.
The wearing of
non-matching leggings is specifically prohibited and possible
suspension of playing in that game will be considered and determined by the
head coach.
The preferred color of helmets, breezers, and gloves for
AYHA teams is Red.
Players already in possession of these items in other colors may
continue to use them; however, when replacement is necessary due to size or
condition, Red is the required
replacement color.
The above requirements apply to all games. For
practices game jerseys or game leggings are not to be worn for practice.
