This is your league foisting off a problem area onto YOU, when they should handle it themselves. Making this ejection YOUR problem (and exacerbating the anger by ejecting the coach as well) is more likely to become a parking lot problem for you.
I am all in favor of "No tolerance for unruly parents", but making it the UMPIRE's issue is a HORRIBLE idea.

Are you saying you have never had a situation where spectator(s) are disrupting or inciting the players?
Especially in HS or youth games, some behavior "outside the fence" is unacceptable and we might need to remind the TD/admin/coach.
