shorts versus skirts

CBC news item today:

"Field Hockey player, Katie Cooper, was kicked off the field during a game for wearing shorts rather than a skirt.  She was told if she wore shorts to a subsequent game she would get a red card.  Today, the Vancouver Women's Field Hockey Association votes on whether or not to allow shorts to be worn during games."   Stay tuned!

In the meantime, for our favourite 18-year-old women's field hockey player it would seem not to be an issue.

Feb.19th.  News flash.  Shorts allowed.  But on a team-by-team basis, all shorts or all skirts.
