I never allow players to wear any jewelry. I don't tell them to take it off/out, I simply tell them that they can't come on the court with jewelry -- their choice. I know some officials allow the players to "tape" the ear rings, but IMHO, this only makes it worse for the next official. I also will not allow them to wear rubber bands on their writst. I was doing a BJV game last night and a player must have had 10-15 rubber bands on one wrist. When I told him he could not play with them on, he said "they give me confidence". I told him they might also give him a broken wrist if someone got a finger or hand caught in them. He took them off.
