What are headbands that have extensions?

See pictures of these on slide or page 7 in the PowerPoint or PDF lesson at this link: 2015/16 Fashion Police Rules. Skylar Diggins made these popular during her years at ND. Were quite common around here. Sorry, Skylar.

I like the picture of LeBron in that link from his high school days at Akron St Vincent-St Marys.
"Medical Thingies on the upper arms? LEGAL"
Those were there to cover his tattoos and were required by the school.

...back to "Sorry Skylar"

I brought this up last year because I incorrectly had girls remove or tuck them in last year during an AAU tournament. Glad the rest of the world is catching up with me.

I think I'm gonna let this type of headband slide during summer ball given the amount of crap I got from a coach (and subsequently the owner of the building I ref in) for not allowing his player to wear earrings, even covered in tape.

I'm still gonna stand up for the actual unsafe things like earrings, rings, necklaces, etc., but not gonna pick battles over that type of headband.

Deal With It ...

I also hate dealing with "Fashion Police" crap, but I deal with it, because the NFHS wants me to deal with it, my state interscholastic high school sports governing body wants me to deal with it, and my state, and local, IAABO boards want me to deal with it.

I just wish that all of my local board colleagues would deal with it. It would make my job a lot easier.

Tuesday night's official (to himself): "This fashion stuff ain't part of "the game"".

Friday night's coach to BillyMac: "But Tuesday night's officials let us wear these".

I'm not sure you were incorrect, even though the rule was not as clear as it could have been,

I know that in IL we were told not to allow them -- and I assume (yeh, I know) they got the info from nfhs somewhere.

They've been illegal in WI for years.
