Suppose a player chose to place a beehive, complete with bees on her head. Since it isn't jewelry, nor a hard item, you would allow that, right? How about a paper plate with a banana and peanut butter sandwich? Or a Mexican sombrero; that's a hat, right, so she can wear it? Star Wars stormtrooper helmet?

Yeah, certainly extreme, and even foolish examples. But if you have no line drawn anywhere, then they should all be allowable. Unless you read 1.11 (a) to limit what is legal headwear.
HS bans bandanas because they were/are considered gang related. I don't think LL has the same concerns.

The sombrero's a hat isn't it? If that's the team hat then it'd be OK.

Remember a few years ago when a HS track team somewhere got DQed because their sports bras did match?

No comment on not wearing anything you weren't born wearing - like clothes?

Sometimes people get way too anal about things of no consequence.
