Schools dont want to deal with them so they make a policy change even the all the other parents wont like it. Could also be a liability issue in our sue-happy world. In a game of tag some kid gets knocked down, hurts his arm, and the parents sue. I do wonder if this policy covers dodge ball and getting beaned in the head with a kick ball. After all.. no touching was involved. Awards
