All Officials on a game must be dressed the same. Uniform for the day is decided by the Referee on the crew with input from partners. All Uniform Shirts must have an American Flag over the Pocket on the Left Breast. Follow "Scholastic Column" in DLOA Uniform Check list below. See below for specific requirements.
Note: Some events may require or allow a different shirt. Check with assignor. Otherwise these requirements are in place for all events.
See DLOA Uniform Checklist Below
The policy follows NFHS Rule 2.5.2. The key is that all officials in the crew are dressed the same
Patches-The only required patch is the US Flag. You can, at your discretion, wear a DIAA patch, a DLOA patch or a patch from an association of which you are a current active member.
If you need to wear compression sleeves or socks they must be skin-toned if visible
Facial hair is acceptable but must be neatly trimmed. Hair (if you have it) should be neatly trimmed and fit inside your hat.
Shirts-The Official Striped Shirt of the DLOA is a 2" Collared Referee Shirt. All Officials should have a long sleeved and short sleeved shirt.
Shorts should be "tennis" or "golf"style shorts with 4 pockets and Belt Loops. No Cargo or Gym Shorts.
As long all officials have and wear one, black Jackets are permitted (assuming neither team is wearing black). They must be all black with minimal logos. An association patch is encouraged. Jackets can only be worn while working games if long pants are also worn. You can “walk-up” to games with Jackets and short pants
