• Illegal equipment rule: Casts or splints made of a hard substance in its final form such as leather, rubber, plastic, plaster or fiberglass will not be allowed except for a manufactured knee brace that has not been altered and an Ace bandage with nothing underneath. This is an exception to the US Soccer rules that allow casts or other braces if covered by soft, pliable foam or other substance and accompanied by a medical release. Newport News Youth Soccer does not allow casts, soft or hard, on any part of the body to be worn in games. There will be no exceptions to this rule.

Coaches are advised to follow this policy in practices as well. Using athletic tape or similar material to cover jewelry is not allowed for any reason. Athletic wristbands and headbands made of cloth material may be worn any time. Medical alert necklaces or bracelets may be worn provided they are taped to the body.
