Coaches being too far out on the field was a problem for us too. What we did was if they were more than 5 yards out on the field between downs, then that team was charged a time out. If they don't have any time outs, then they were flagged for delay of game. If they are on the field during a play, we called illegal participation on bench. We were very lenient with this rule and always issued a warning before we made a call but it gets their attention and when we penalize them or charge them a time out, they don't argue.
