Uniform Protocol

All EMLOA officials are reminded of the need to follow the official dress code.

  • All officials must wear matching uniforms (e.g., both wear shorts, or both wear rain pants; similarly both wear either long or short sleeve shirts).
  • The official socks must be worn.
  • Shoes should be polished and ALL BLACK.
  • If worn, t-shirts should either be white, gray or black (preferably black) and free of designs (colors, slogans) that may show through uniform.
  • In order to look professional, uniforms should be clean, not discolored and in good repair.
  • In case of differing selections, the referee (the first official listed in assignment sheet) determines what is worn.
  • All officials must wear the EMLOA patch on the left sleeve and the US flag above the shirt pocket.  No college patches or numbers shall be worn while officiating EMLOA-assigned games.
