Since the NFHS allowed high school coaches to wander down to the endline several years ago, I don't pay too much attention to the other end of the coaching box unless the coach is in front of the table. I usually notice this before reporting fouls and I don't report the foul until I push (with hand gestures and orally, "Back in the box coach") the coach back into his coaching box. Almost all comply, but if they don't, they'll get an "official" warning. Oft times they really don't know that they're out of the box, they're enthusiastically watching the game, the players, the officials, not the lines on the court.
