New Rules
For safety reasons, we still strongly discourage the use of headphones. The safest and best answer is not to use them. If you still choose to use them, you do so at your own risk and must meet the following requirements:
1. Hear traffic
2. Be aware of the sounds around you
3. Be able to hear instructions from course officials when speaking at a reasonable tone (not yelling)
Strikes will be given out if you are unable to hear instructions. Three strikes on any rule may result in disqualification for your entire team.

1. Put the headphones behind your ears rather than in your ears
2. Use one ear bud rather than two
3. Use a device likehttp://www.safesoundsports.com/product.html
4. Keep the volume low
5. Use a device like an iPhone or Blackberry on speaker mode
