Base Layer Stockings/Tights
You may have seen the following information in the October
edition of Touchline:
Following enquiries from coaches and parents, the RFU can
confirm that it is permissible under RFU Regulations for young
players, up to Under 18s, to wear base layer stockings or tights in
cold weather, in accordance with IRB Regulation 12. This regulation
states particular thickness. However, parents can assume that most
common brands will comply, although players are permitted to wear
them subject to the assessment of the match referee that the items
are safe and pose no risk of injury to the wearer or other
participants
Please note that U18 year olds playing in the adult game may not
wear base layer stockings/tights.
