Our association stressed last season to make sure you tell the coaches to stay in their box so if you ever run one over who is out on the court you can be sure he was told by the referee to remain in his coaches box. Just a little extra ammunition if you ever need it in litigation.
With apologies to Johnny Cochran..."If the coach is full of sh!t, you must acquit."
