I don't wear a hat now that I use the hockey style mask. Pre-season I asked M.H.S.A.A. Assoc Director (who is also on the NFHS rules committee) about this issue; if not wearing a hat would affect our tournament opportunities.
His reply: Tom: The hockey style mask is allowed. The fact that when removed means an umpire will be without a hat is not a problem and will not affect tournament assignments.
So at least in Michigan, it is not a big deal.
