I think some of the rules need clarifying in terms of defining limits based upon either common sense or responsible testing.
I think this process is ongoing and hopefully will be made clear soon enough.

I see. I just hope things get clarified very quickly because the first Millennium 7-player event is coming up soon (Easter weekend) and we are trying to get everyone involved trained and prepared.

Hahaha Why am I not surprised that Robbo care about this.
I hope that the Millennium Series going to make the rules and NOT the manufacturer or team/team-captain.
just to be clear, we're talking about NPPL rules here, not Millennium Rules.
Clear loaders, orange and pink shirts, and metal cleats are all still allowed in Millenniums, right?

Generally this whole area is one where I get irritated as a player, as a judge or as an organizer. That is. where clearly written rules are ignored.
It simply makes it more difficult when the written rules don't coincide with "real rules".
So either misplaced padding is allowed by the rules or not. If allowed = no rule against it. Otherwise enforce the rule consistently from a reasonable warning period.
Pink tops or tops with pink in them. Allowed or not ACCORDING TO WHAT'S IN THE RULES.
We want these matters, it makes sense, to be clarified.

What jerseys ara you using? With padding on the shoulders. Instead of change your jersey and follow the rules you try to change the rules
Steve, the implementation of rules is only credible if those rules are both reasonable, rigorous and non ambiguous.
What's the point of banning padding if the rule book does not specify thicknesses of single layers?
It could well be that a company brings out a single layered jersey that is half inch thick.
This eventuality does not attract the designate of 'padding'and therefore would be allowed under current NPPL rules as far as I know.
The limits have to be specific and unambiguous with those limits being derived from a reasonable and fair rationale.
It's no good just slapping an arbitary ban on something without doing the necessary groundwork, it just makes no sense especially if we are trying to be professional about how we conduct our business.
I think common sense has to prevail somewhere along the line and hopefully it will soon enough, some time today I would think
We use Dye jerseys...now be a good little boy, read the post before this one and go back to bed !!!
So you've been expanding that section of the rules to be specific and unambiguous?Originally posted by Robbo

Thats good, I'm with Steve on the situation with rules at the moment, there is too much unclear, ambiguous or just ignored rules. Will you post here again when the update is released?
