Well ...

1) After a warning? Is warning "fair"
Why do you need a warning? And if you are going to warn .... don't.

2) swearing or vulgarity?
If its HS by the book he's not supposed to, but don't be a by the book official. If everybody in the gym heard it probably. If no one esle heard him, then let it go.

If he swears at me, then he's getting a T.

If he curses his players, they probably deserved it. That's his job I don't have to like the way he coaches.

3) Coaching the ref's and not his/her players?
I don't care what he does. I do my job. If he interferes then I deal with him/her. That's part of learning to talk to the coach and there are many many threads about that on this site I'm sure.

4) Throwing hands up just to excit their crowd?
So what. Unless he's doing something that goes against my integrity that's coaching.

Ever ask the Assistant or scorekeeper to "cool them off"?
NO!


Comments?

A coach is a coach. He's paid to do his job.

I'm paid to officiate. We can get along fine, but I would suggest that you don't go looking for problems, there are enough things to worry about without having to worry about a coach.

Thanks
David
