OK. Let me ask you this question:

A hair string you have allowed a player to wear falls off without you seeing it. Next trip down, a player slips on that piece of string, hits her head or has a neck injury. Who will they hold responsible?

I know this is an almost non issue, but just remember the story about the two junior high refs a few years ago. Let a kid wear a rubber band, it snapped, hit another kid in the eye (blinding him in that eye) and they paid half a million each!

Food for thought!
