I wish we would also have more leeway in preventing uniform and jewelry violations at the startline or event. Fact of the matter here is, it's the coaches responsibility to prevent it before they enter the track or competition area.
Once they become competitors per definition, it is out of our hands.
It's working as the number of DQs in my sectional area has dropped off tremendously as a result of this strict policy. It all begins with a pre-meet coaches and captains meeting.

Tom,
With everyone on the same page, life is pretty good.
With zero tolerance, wherever the line is drawn, life is pretty easy.

Maybe, in Michigan, they figger that their young athletes just may need a reminder.
When I used to be a parent, from time to time I asked the kids, "Now, just what were you thinkin'?"
