Or computers...Those are power tools, right?

If you have any team parents, have them talk to the administration, too. Parents pay the school for their kids to attend, right? I don't think the school will want to risk losing income. (That's why they have the policy in the first place.) But, if the team continues and does well, then they could gain students. (And money.)
