The rule book simply says the officials will notify the head coach when a player is disqualified. My state still has the calling official do it, especially given that the calling official stays tableside. So do many others.

In the 2003-05 Officials Manual, which I believe is the current manual with the correct mechanics except for the change to 3-person staying table-side when reporting says:

2-person Basic Procedures and Mechanics
page 37 i. The non-calling official shall notify the coach and then the player on a disqualification and will administer substitutions

3-person Basic Procedures and Mechanics
page 69 i. The trail official shall notify the coach and then the player on a disqualification and will administer the substitutions.

I know the 3-person has now changed due to the updated mechanic to stay table-side when reporting a foul, but the 2-person mechanic says the non-calling informs.

All my games are 3 man.

However, some our association JV games are 2 man. In our 2 man games, the calling official notifies the coach. It makes no sense for the calling official to report, then make a switch with the other official, just to notify the coach. Therefore, we follow the same guidelines in 2 man as we do in 3.

There will be a lot of changes written to the Officials Manual next year.
