Dress Code for Umpires

The following will apply in all matches under the authority of LCU&SA and in all other matches to which umpires are appointed by the LCU&SA unless the relevant authority requires and issues other jackets/shirts/hats. The wearing of a hat is voluntary.

Both umpires must be similarly dressed (except as regards hats).  For example, umpires’ jackets may be discarded, provided that both umpires do so and wear the correct polo shirts. If either umpire wishes to wear a jacket, then both umpires must wear jackets.
