This year has been an emphasis this season by our commisioner for high school athletics. We were informed at our rules meeting that NO COACH IS ALLOWED ON THE FIELD! Not between plays; not furing a down, not at all. There is a 3 yd box for only 3 coaches. ALL others + players MUSt remian in the players box. So far, we have only had to throw 3 sideline warnings for voilations. Coaches do not like it, but they are conforming. We DO NOT go looking for this, but if we see a coach on the field, we flag him.
Seems to be working so far this season. Nice clean sidelines.
