Dakota: "The high schools, however, generally are not allowed to eject in the out of sight/sound sense with the players, since there may be no adult available for supervision. Similar problem for ejecting a coach, since HS ball will not allow the team to play without an adult in the dugout"
Please read the book. NFHS rules specifically state that a restricted or ejected player remains in the dugout. It is not the high schools that do this; it is your job as an umpire to put the player in the dugout for the rest of the game. Period.
The rules also state that if you eject a coach he/she is to leave the area. Period. Your job as an umpire is to insure that the coach leaves the area.
Your decision as to eject or restrict is based on the specific rule violation; it is not an option for you to pick and choose penalties - other than the 6 violations I noted where you decide the seriousness of the violation before determining the penalty.
