Jewelry - religious items

Question
Jewerly - We know that medical bracelets/necklaces are allowed provided that they are taped down and the medical condition is exposed. Religious items came up. This item is covered in the H.S. rule book but not ours. In this PC world, I don't want to get into a religious war. Is USSSA FP allowing religious items provided they are treated the same as medical?

Response
2.5 Jewelry – Our jewelry rule exempts medical alert bracelets and necklaces. We have no such exemption for religious items that would exclude them from the jewelry rule.
