Early in my career, I did a girls game by myself at a Saudi Arabian school here in northern VA. The school was playing another middle eastern school and all but 1 of the young ladies (5-6 grade) wore the head coverings. I don't recall asking about having something in writing because every girl except the 1 wore them -- doesn't mean it was right, just don't remember ever asking.
An interesting thing about the game is that there was an armed security guard at the entrance to the school and I had to leave my drivers license (as a form of ID) with him and be escorted to the gym. It was a great game because there was none of the usual trash talking, rude parents, etc. you sometimes see at games. Talked to the coach of the home team after the game and she said they never had a discipline problem at the school. She said this was partly because the classes were segregated between boys and girls.
