Here in AZ, we have been told that any player who has to wear something different for religious purposes, must have a letter on file with the state association. The team is required to keep a copy of that letter with them and show it to the game officials on demand. No letter, no play.

That's the best way to handle these types of situations imo. It takes the monkey off of the officials' backs to make a ruling that might be changed up the line later anyway.

It's no problem following the rules but we do have to know what the rules are.
