My daughter competed in gymnastics for years, and one flash was enough to get a parent ejected from the gym. This was strictly for safety reasons. I don't see that in basketball with all the speed and jumping and close play it's all that much different. I would use the safety arguement as the main point, and stick strongly to it.

And really, the home players are just as likely to get hurt as the visitors. What is the home coach thinking?!?!?
