The POE in the rulebook says that a player wanting to wear a head covering for medical or religious reasons has to present those reasons to the state association. "If approved, the state association shall provide written authorization to the school to be made available to officials."

But the NFHS powerpoint then says: "the player presents a doctor’s note which indicates the player must wear a head covering for a medical reason, the officials shall permit a non-dangerous covering or wrap to be worn".

This makes it sound like the player presents the doctor's note to the game officials without the aforementioned written authorization from the state association.

Are we going to allow a player to wear headgear based on a doctor's note at the table? Or are we going to require the state association's authorization?
