Thumbs up I use that one too...

I noticed that any illegal contact below the waist is a 15 yard penalty. This is one that I use all the time.

Have not heard about the penalty for illegal contact by winning coaches. I would have to classify this as unsportsmanlike conduct by the coach, but since this is after the end of regulation and overtime play you would have to report this to the proper higher league authorities because your jurisdiction ended with the referee's declaration that the game is finished.

In our association we have a referee that once assessed a 5 yard running into the passer foul. Guess it did not meet his criteria for roughing the passer! Too bad it did not meet any criteria found in the rule-book!
