Before you do anything rash, I'd like to remind you that they must have some reason for doing this. It's easier to do nothing than change a policy, so they wouldn't have unless they felt it necessary.

Several years back, our school had an issue with the cheerleaders. My understanding was that it had something to do with insurance. This limited what they could do (i.e. no pyramids or other such things that chearleaders do). I don't recall if they actually did these things, so it might not have actually affected them. They also to change their name. They went through a couple different names. Last I heard, they were called the "competetive dance team".

You say that your school won't give you a reason, but I think that's the first thing you need to find. Until you know why they put the policy in place, it might not be a good idea to try and fight it. Maybe insurance won't let them allow power tools on campus. Maybe they are trying to keep you guys safe but don't understand how important they are. Maybe they're trying to shut down your team without doing so directly. Whatever their reasons, you need to find out what they are to appropriately act on the situation. As Eric suggested, try moving your way up the chain of command.
