But how can a foul be handed out prior to something not even in affect yet?? Just wondering?

You really should get a rulebook if you're going to coach. And I'm not being smart-azzed when I say that either.
The officials' jurisdiction starts as soon as they step on the court- which is usually at least 15 minutes before game time. From that time on until all of the officials have left the court at the end of the game, you are governed by all the "technical foul" rules when it comes to behavior, etc. If you don't believe that, tell 3 of your players to dunk the ball in warm-ups.
