I would not fight them, but it would not go unreported. Because it might be possible that they have been a problem again and they could put their membership or participation up in the air. Just like if I were to overstep my authority I could suffer the same consequences. But when we are on the court in this state, we are in charge of the contest. If that is not the way it is there, then so be it.

Of course officials are the authority over the contest...that's not what Camron said. He said the Principal or AD are the authority over the facility and the school. If the Principal or AD calls you over to the table and says "This game is over" then the game is over - there's nothing you can do about it. You can file reports and call assignors afterwards, but the game is over when they say so.
