I believe the current rules are that the puck must be a contrasting colour to the stick so the referees can distinguish between the playing area of the stick and your hand. I also believe that your glove can not be red/orange which is reserved for referees.
These rules make perfect sense to me, and are not hard to comply with. I dont think they need changing. | You are saying the rules make perfect sense and yet you are not paraphrasing them correctly. The puck (for international tournaments) is supposed to be pink or orange but other colors maybe allowed at the discretion of the Tournament Director. Gloves cannot be yellow or orange (reserved for refs) RED is fine as long as it contrasts the puck. The no red gloves is for some reason a very common misconception, but rules say nothing about red pucks or red gloves.
oops, i do have to agree that this part of the rules makes sense to me, i just felt like clarifying a point about the glove color. For example one of our players in Sheffield was not allowed to wear one of Marko's Red/Grey Slovenian gloves for a match, and another ref allowed him to use a marker to make the red parts black (it did wear off). Everyone for some reason thinks red is a problem.
