This will depend on your state association's rules. As far as I know, there is no rule in the FED rulebook that requires a team to have a coach. The requirement to have an adult on the bench is more of a CYA liability issue for the schools than a rule issue.

Your state association may dictate that this situation is a forfeit or they may dictate that the game is suspended until another adult is available to continue the game. Or they may say that the game is simply over at that point.
