My League is having trouble clarifying if the team has to wear the team shirt everyday?

Some say you have to wear it everyday, and some day that you don't have to only in the beginning and towards the end for representation.

What is the real fact?
 
Official BCAPL reaponse

Team shirts are required while you are actually playing in a match with your team, regardless of when the match takes place. All players who play in the match must have a shirt ? a shirt may not be worn by more than one person during a match. There is no requirement to wear a team shirt at any time that you are not playing.

For complete information please see the complete dress code for the BCAPL National 8-Ball Championships at:

The answer to most any question you might have should be found there.

* The BCAPL has no association with the Billiard Congress of America (BCA) other than in their capacity as a member of the BCA.
* No reference to, inference concerning, or comment on any other set of rules (WPA, APA, VNEA, TAP, or any other set of rules, public or private) is intended or should be derived from this post unless specifically referenced.
* BCAPL Referees are enforcers of rules, not legislators or interpreters. The job of deciding how to interpret or enforce a rule lies properly only with the administrator of a tournament or an organization ? not the referee. Where an interpretation of a rule is necessary and a referee has no definitive written guidance to cite, the matter should be resolved by the administrator. The BCAPL has (fortunately for the BCAPL Referees and membership) taken the step of providing such guidance in a manner never before seen in the billiard industry, and also taken the additional step of making that guidance freely available to BCAPL players as well.
* Not every imaginable issue has been addressed by the BCAPL. Nor will it ever be, as evidenced by the seemingly endless situations that people dream up or that (more frequently) actually happen. If I do not have the answer to a question I will tell you so, then I will get a ruling from the BCAPL National Office and get back to you as soon as I can. If deemed appropriate, that ruling will then be added to the "Applied Rulings" section of The Official Rules of the BCA Pool League.

So basically everyday you have to wear the team shirt pretty much when your playing.

Man, thats alot of money, 5 days wearing, 5 shirts, or wearing the same dirty shirt for 5 days.
 
I told the teams in the league and they were tripping.

So im asking one more time...


You must wear a team shirt at all times if you are playing a match. Everyday.
 
YES,You have to wear your team shirts EVERY time you play.NO excuses.So if you have abnormal body order and you go far into the tourny,your in big trouble.

On the bottom of the first page - Team Event Shirt Requirements.

The Team shirt requirements are in effect for all team events

Team shirts must substantially match in color, style, and trim.
If you cannot locate this info on the link provided, ask your sponsor or team mate to help you.

I always have each team member get 2 shirts. If you wear a t-shirt under it and remove team shirt after each match, they don't get much wear. If you get toward finals and might be wearing it more you can always wash one of them. Beleive it or not there are places to do laundry.:wink:
 
A few years ago we played a team that was not aware of the team shirt rule. They rushed over to one of the booths and bought 5 matching shirts really quick. Then we trounced em and sent them packin-lol.
Seriously they were a great group of guys and good sprtsmen.
