FYI - Premier is playing by NFHS rules and they do not require a chin strap. Hopefully this blue reads up on the NFHS rules and knows the difference in rules from ASA. Thus hopefully not affecting the outcome of a critical game.
If not having a chin strap "affects the outcome of a critical game" your team has bigger problems.
Besides don't most kids have chinstraps since they are required everywhere but HS?
I was under the impression that the only place chin straps are required is ASA...
There may be some I'm not familiar with, but I don't think straps are required in USSSA, USFA, NSA, NFHS, NCAA....
