I tell them to remove the headphones, during warm-ups. It's easily understood as a safety issue.
I also tell the players to tuck in their jersey, remove rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. The liability coverage under our contract is void if we don't follow the prescribed responsibilities we incur as our part of that agreement.

Funny... I thought he was being sarcastic, and expected his list to end with telling the players that we're playing the black line all the way around.

This is one I'm probably leaving alone unless I'm instructed otherwise.

As a coach I would not allow it but this is not something I want to deal with unless necessary.

As long as the speaking captain knows that, we're good in my game.
