There's several things here:
1. How hard did your Supervisor push the issue?
2. The Tournament Director is running his tournaments like a business. Do you know why? Because it is. He doesn't want to start running off teams with their enty fee, gate money and consessions profits.
3. The officials are still the same and your line is the same line. If they cross it, then penalize. If they do it again, they are gone for that game. If they do it again next game, then so do you.
4. Let's just say some of those same trouble coaches do indeed show up, or maybe some new ones do. Be careful not to walk into your games with some preconceived notions on how their behavior will go. I know it's hard because we can forgive but not forget. Remember, you're representing good officials everywhere.
5. Sometimes it's rare in AAU ball but consider a quick pregame where sportsmanship A#1.
