If one reads NFHS R10-S5, Penalty Note 2, one will see that it specifically states that and I quote: "Ejected adult bench personnel shall leave the vicinity (out of sight and sound) of the playing area immediately and are prohibited from any further contact (direct or indirect) with the team during the remainder of the game."

No where in the NFHS Rules will anybody find a rule that states that a disqualified non-adult bench personel shall leave the vicinity (out of sight and sound) of the playing area immediately and are prohibited from any further contact (direct or indirect) with the team during the remainder of the game. The reason being that the NFHS wants disqualified non-adult bench personel to be under adult supervision at all times.
