When wearing headbands and/or wristbands, all players must wear the same color and wear the items as intended. Only a single item may be worn on the head and/or on each wrist. Sweatbands must be worn below the elbow and be a maximum of four inches. A single headband, if worn, must be no wider than two inches. There may also be one visible manufacturer's logo/trademark/reference or a school logo/mascot on the wristband or headband. The changes were made to enhance team uniformity and eliminate a player from unnecessarily drawing individual attention to him/herself. By permitting the school logo/mascot, school spirit is promoted.
so if I choose to wear a b/w striped head/wrist/sweatband, my partner must also wear striped. or I could wear solid black... or solid white, (since both are the predominant colors of my jersey) and my partner(s) would have to wear the same color as me.

I believe this is incorrect. Replace "striped" with "sweatband the color of the torso of our jerseys or white," and it would be accurate. The reason is the big "or" bolded in the Comment you posted above - it doesn't say "and/or." (This, in particular, was discussed at my association's POE/Revisions meeting in November.)
