while wearing a head covering if it meets the following criteria: a. For medical or cosmetic reasons – In the event a participant is required by a licensed medical physician to cover his/her head with a covering or wrap, the physician's statement is required before the state association can approve a covering or wrap which is not abrasive, hard or dangerous to any other player and which is attached in such a way it is highly unlikely that it will come off during play. b. For religious reasons – In the event there is documented evidence provided to the state association that a participant may not expose his/her uncovered head, the state association may approve a covering or wrap which is not abrasive, hard or dangerous to any other player and which is attached in such a way it is highly unlikely it will come off during play. 3.5 Situation A: ... The state association may authorize exceptions to the playing rules to provide reasonable accommodations to participants with disabilities and/or special needs or other unique and extenuating circumstances. The accommodations should not fundamentally alter the sport, create risk of injury to the student-athlete/others or place opponents at a disadvantage. Note that, according to the NFHS (check your local listings) the documentation goes to the state association, and does not necessarily (by NFHS rule) follow the player to the game site. So as far as game officials are concerned, if the coach, or site director, or athletic director, states that the state has received documentation and that the exception has been approved, then it's play ball, we don't have to see said documentation. However, that being said (When in Rome ...), after the game, I would let my assignment commissioner know about the exception, and put the matter into his lap.
