The only problem with that is how would you know from one game to another whether it's the same one or another that has been broken. I had an Easter tournament game where I took a helmet out during pre-game. It showed up during the game and I took it out again. About three batters later here it comes again. I had the boy give to me and I threw it over the fence in the woods. I told them " Now leave it there." I've had the same team three times since and I haven't seen that helmet since. I'm not suggesting this as a good way to handle it but I'm a pretty big dog locally and I can get away with some things others wouldn't.
