By halftime he had settled down. The game finished pretty clean.

IMO this guy needed a quick warning followed by a quick T. Maybe skip the warning. Going ballistic is BS. Take care of buisiness & shut him up. If he doesn't shut up get him out of the gym.

Last night championship of a pretty big GJV tourney. Coach, very politetly had something to say about every call that didn't go her way. her complaints were the games too rough (we called 34 fouls) in the 2nd half alone. i told her i agreed the game was too rough and they should clean it up and her reply was her lil darlings had nothing too do with it. Sigh. So lets start with those two examples. and see what you lords of the hardcourt come up with.

This type of coach I can work with - if she's polite I'll talk to her the entire game. Never tell a coach the game is too rough. Tell him there's a lot of contact on both sides.
All coaches are different, how you handle them depends on how they are working you.
