Over the last few years I think my HS association averages maybe 2-3 ejections a season. The $500 fine is a great deterrent.

I can see how this fine would be a great deturrent. I think that more areas should institue it. I know that in PA, an ejected coach or player is required to sit out the remainder of the current contest as well as one more. I think that is it. I would like to see the PIAA adopt something similar to this with a stiff fine and/or sportsmanship test (preferably with a class)
