Of course, in my district the teams are so small numerically that the sideline issue is not a problem. Most teams have only 2 coaches that coach JV, one is on the field, and the other is the bench coach. The players do a good job of staying behind the line.

In our youth leagues that allow coaches on the field, they are not allowed to say anything to the officials. Not even, "How much time is left" or "Time out!" Only thing I've had one say that I didn't flag was pointing out an injured player far behind the play. they are there to coach, and not AT ALL to talk to the refs. 2nd offense and you don't get a coach on the field anymore.
