I suspect they'll let you in regardless. Right move to contact the coordinator directly.

You should be looking for a good fit. I wouldn't order a helmet without trying it. If it doesn't fit you properly, it won't protect you well; your head will move around in the helmet in case of impact. Different models offer different fits, and obviosly the shape of your head matters, too. May be you can buy one locally where you are. It wouldn't have the SNELL sticker though. You can ask the coordinator about that, too. HJC makes some good entry level helmets.
