You're just too nice a guy, Mike.
We've had similar problems over the years in basketball with a mens rec league and in football with a mens flag league. We told them both that the only way that they would get officials is (1) first ejection is one game, and (2) second ejection is the rest of the year. If contact was involved in either ejection, it would immediately be a lifetime ban. We also told them that there was zero tolerance, with no recourse for any ejection. Iow, a player got one kick at the can.
If they truly want to clean their leagues up, they'll agree. If they don't, let 'em do their own damn games.
