Then I realize that a student manager has brought water out to the 4 players and is also standing on the court.
I halted my partners from proceeding with the 2nd FT and said, "coach, I need you to take a seat. This isn't a timeout and we shouldn't have water on the court." At this point the head coach realizes whats happening and pops up saying, "what's a matter?" After a quick explanation, his response was, "we can't get a drink during a break?"
At that point I just walked away, obviously realizing that he is missing the bigger picture here. Any thoughts on handling this differently?

Generally I would allow this kind of standing during FT. I would address them being on the court however, they can do all those things while being off the court.
