I agree with what TriggerMN said, in fact we are instructed by our assigner not to start the game unless the coaching boxes are clearly marked.
As far as being out of the box, our instructions from the State Assn. are crystal clear - 1st violation warning, 2nd is a T. The implied threat was that if abuse of the coaching box doesn't get cleared up they're going to take it away.
What Nick said is correct - the coaching box is for coaching, not yelling at the officials. If his/her behavior warrants it, I'll assess the T no matter where the coach is.
