Let’s see, a girl on my daughter’s team had to have reconstructive plastic surgery because a referee didn’t make her take out an ear stud that subsequently caught on another player’s equipment. It pulled a large chunk of her upper ear off. Then there was the girl in a high school game that I made remove her jewelry before the game and then she hid it in her sock and put it back on when she was on the field. A driven ball that she didn’t head properly hit her in the nose and drove the post for the nose stud through her septum. Shall I go on?
