Unless you've seen it for yourself, it's very easy to be critical of the "inaction" to be proactive in the soccer community. (Been there myself)

Kevin is right, that it goes even higher than the SCHSL. This is a direct quote from the Winter Clinic last month in regards to a new rule that makes coaches responsible for players improperly equip (shin guards). Mind you, the wrestling version of this rule had already been rescinded because it was found that a player intentionally got his coach fired.
Roger Hazel: It's just a rule - whether it's good or bad, that's what it is.
When it was questioned why soccer coaches cannot communicate between pressbox and sideline (unlike football).
Hazel: I don't know, you have to ask the Federation.
