I called 4 techs in 3 games. I wont get into details but they were all very warrented.
My question is: Were playing NFHS rules. I gave Techs to coaches and after the tech the coaches still were still standing and I told them they had to sit because that what I was taught thought that was the rule. Both coaches said they wouldnt sit and I ask the other official that actually was running this short league and he said it would be ok and if they get out of hand anymore we'll send them.
I read the rule book and didn't see anything about them having to sit but it did say they loose there coaching box privledge. What does that mean?
Thanks
The rule you seek is 10-5-1a. It defines when a coach may stand also after a tech.
The coaching box is rule 1-13-2 but can be modified by state association adoption (ie: in Texas we have a 6 foot coaching box)
