But how can you allow the visiting coach to stand when there is no box?
Sorry but your commissioner's solution is poor at best.

The simple fact of the matter is that during the pre-season coaches meeting/clinic, the VHSL Coordinator specified that all school need to have the coaches boxes clearly defined. This was told to the school way in advance and if they didnt comply, then the home coach would sit and the visiting coach would have an imaginary box. This goes hand and hand with the POI dealing with the enforcement of the box. No box, no enforcement. So, to counter that, the home coach will sit and I guarentee you there will be a box by the next game.

I am from Virginia and that is the rule that I have been told and am still hearing (just called today). The reason both coaches arent sitting is b/c the floor should have been marked. It's the responsibility of the home team to do so. Therefore, you dont mark you have to sit. A visiting coach should not be punished bc of lazyness of home team. Thats how VHSL sees it. Where in VA are you from IREFU2??
