Can the coach request this to come off? Again nothing about it in the Official Rules.

Rules differ so there probably isn't a definitive answer.
Batting Gloves:
OBR: Can't wear one.
LL: Can wear if it is not white, gray, or optic yellow.
FED: Can't be distracting
NCAA: Cannot wear.
Wrist bands:
LL, OBR - cannot wear
FED, NCAA - can't be distracting
