Knee Pads MUST Be Worn

According to GHSA the knee pad rule is being called very inconsistently. Please look at the Rule as written . We should mention to the Coach before the game that knee pads must be worn properly. If a player enter a ball game with improper knee pads he will be sent out for it to be corrected. If that player is allowed to play it becomes a liability issue.
