What is the correct procedure for disqualifying a player?
Notify the coach, notify the player, notify the scorer.

Situation: A1 is dribbling the ball, B2 reaches in and steals the ball, no foul called. A1, thinking he was fouled and emotional, pushes B1 in the back knocking B1 to the ground. Official calls an intentional/fragrant foul, awarding B 2 free throws and the ball OOB at division line.
If it was IP, no DQ. If it was FP, DQ.

The stitch is, the game officials never notified the HC of the disqualification. Player goes back in and plays. 4 days later, the AD of team A is notified of the disqualification of A1 from that game, and by rule, the next game.

Can this disqualification be disputed or should it be upheld?
I'd say that not notifying the coach is a reason not to impose any penalty on the game where the kid played, but the player should still be suspended from the next game (assuming that's the "correct" penalty for a DQ in your area).
