I am joining the conversation late but I have the following observation to make.

One only has to look at the sport of basketball to see how easy it is to ban all jewelry. All basketball rules codes (NFHS, NCAA Men's and Women's, NBA, WNBA, and FIBA), world wide, prohibit the wearing of jewelry. Which means technically, the rubber bracelets (you know the cancer ones) and rubber bands that you seen worn at all levels except NFHS are illegal. So, if basketball can ban jewelry (not withstanding rubber bracelets and rubber bands) world wide, any sport can do it.

Just my two cents.

P.S. My opinion is that no matter what the sport, jewelry should be banned.
