I think that we are putting too much into it to say that it is going to snap off and pop someone in the head. I have coached a kid that had long hair but didn't want to ware a headband, so he put a large rubberband around his forehead and it seemed to work. My call on the play let it go, unless it comes off.
That's the problem - once it comes off, you have a kid who got smacked in the face, and you can't do anything to prevent an injury.
