It would be one indirect T for each team member who engaged in the fight. If there were other team members who left the bench, but did not join the fray, then another indirect would be assessed for all of them. However, if only two leave and both become involved, then it is only two indirects, not three (as there wouldn't be one for both of them leaving the bench).

1. Double flagrant foul on A1 and B1, both disqualified, no FTs. One team foul for each side. (Personal or Technical determined by whether the action took place during a live or dead ball.)
2. Two from Team A leave and fight, Three from Team B leave and fight: each receives a flagrant technical foul and is disqualified. Two team fouls against Team A, three against Team B. Head Coach for Team A receives two indirects. Head Coach for Team B receives three indirects and is DQ'd. Team A would be due two FTs as Team B had one extra fighter.
3. Two members from Team A left the bench, but did not become involved. Each receives a flagrant technical foul and is disqualified. Two team fouls against Team A. Head Coach for Team A receives one indirect T for the actions of these two team members, when combined with the two indirects received in section 2 this gives him three and equals a disqualification. Team B would be due only two FTs as neither team member from Team A was a fighter.
4. Cancel the 2FTs for Team A from part 2 with the 2FTs for Team B from part 3 and resume at the POI, per Case Book rulings listed under 10.4.5.
