OK, how about this:

- if you wave the coach onto the floor the player has
got to go. No option. If the girl was standing up
you might have asked him if he wants a time out before
herding them off the court & getting the sub in.

- there's no such thing as an "injury timeout". *DON'T*
rush the injured player off the floor. Be patient but
as soon as the player is able to walk to the bench or
get carried off the floor get the sub in. If the coach
is by himself, as is typicaly the case in these games,
give him a few seconds to have a parent or league
director cover for him or take the kid off his hands.
Did I mention *DON'T* rush the injured player off the
floor?

- the coach wanted to "protect" his girls, so he went
after you. Or maybe he didn't like your tone of voice
when you aproached him. Or maybe he's just a loud mouthed
jerk. In any case, you don't have to take it, regardless
of the score or how much time was left. You done good by
banging him.
