Player with a saftey concern checks into the game

[so cal lurker]

In high school soccer, the coach does get cautioned (yellow card--for non-soccer folks, it's similar to a T) if a player comes onto the field illegally equipped.

I am told that the rule was changed to the coach only gets cautioned for the first offense (and after that the player does) as some teams not happy with their coach would just happen to forget to take out those earrings, and when the second player did it, the coach was ejected . . .
