What I was taught is we have no idea why they're coming onto the court so we deal with it accordingly. Knowing my assignors I'm sure I'd have their support as soon as I put the words "head coach from team xxx entered the court during the incident" on a report.
I had a situation similar to this one about 3-4 years ago and no one from either coaching staff set foot on the court. One thing that helped, I think, is when things broke out I was table-side so I was able to turn and yell for everyone to stay where they were. Two members of the home team bench - non-coaches - didn't listen and they got tossed.
