If this would have happened in my local kids rec league, I would have told that coach to knock it off the first time I heard any verbal abuse, and if he would have given me any rebuttal other than, "Sorry, it won't happen again" along with an apology to the girls, he would have been not only ejected, but suspended indefinitely.
Unfortunately, this happened in a tournament for teams from extremely competitive leagues.
I did have one minor "run in" with this guy. During play, he told me that the next time his team "had possession", he wanted a timeout. I told him thanks for the heads up, but to remember to request it at that time. He said, "I just told you." Fortunately, there was a dead ball by now, so I had the time to tell him that I couldn't grant a request "in the future" and he'd still have to ask for it when he wanted it.
He looked perplexed.
