What a bunch of Meanies!
You would really tell a little 8 year old girl she can’t play because of a little head scarf? This isn’t mortal combat or military service these children are walking into – it’s just a friendly competition and one they’ve taken part in before. These kids (all of them) are learning sportsmanship. It’s a game. It’s play time! It’s time to meet other kids and share common interests and show everyone what you’ve got.
Adults determined to following every single rule of a children’s game, no matter how many little girls they make cry or hurt along the way, are very un-cool.
