I had a girl remove her headband because the logo was too long.
She took it off and the logo was okay.
She put it on, and it was too long.
She took it off and it was okay....

An amusing point, mick.
With the proliferation of stretchy material in sports apparel, there may well be a significant difference.

I would have to think that the size of the logo should be judged while the item is being worn and as it will appear during game action. The NFHS seems to be concerned with how things look on the court during play.

I had something just like that happen, except it had the "Swoosh" with the words "NIKE" next to it and "Just Do it" around the band. We just had her flip it over so the white back was showing and left it at that. I have yet to have a girls game where we didn't have to explain and re-explain to the coaches what their players could and could not wear...it's just getting too confusing!
