As for a T, I'm not inclined to go there immediately. Let game management deal with it as it is their responsibility....if that doesn't work, we always have the T to fall back on.....

In either case, a report definitely needs to go through channels to make sure the unacceptable conduct is reported to the state association and administrative personnel of the school involved.
Agree completely. It's game management's problem to deal with. You did your job by telling them to do their job. And you followed case book play 2.8.1.... so your butt is covered in case someone wants to whine later.

Excellent advice as to how to handle the situation imo.
