NFHS Rule 11‐3‐1 – Reviewing Decisions
Correct protocol for reviewing a decision by a referee that may have resulted in an incorrect decision
is as follows:
The head coach may request a time‐out (during the dead ball immediately following the rule in
dispute).
The head coach and R2 may approach the R1 on the stand after the time‐out is granted.
If the ruling is altered the time‐out is then charged to the official and the revision made.
Decisions based on the judgment of the referees are final and not subject to review (11‐3‐3).

Funny video somewhere about this situation.
Belleville vs Garden City: Team attempts to substitute and has a rotation issue during the dead ball. Only one substitute reports to the substitution zone. At the same time she approaches the zone, the coach asks for a lineup check. The R2 does the rotation check then the first substitution occurs. The R2 hands the court back to the R1, then the same team tries initiating a second substitution, which the R1 denies. The captain comes over and there is a discussion. A couple points go by and the coach is still throwing a temper tantrum. The R1 issues a yellow card to the coach. When she is informed she has to sit, she immediately sits down on the floor just outside the court. She is issued a red card. She then argues a little more. The coach then calls a time out and brings the rulebook with her across the court to argue the call about the substitution. She then is told to return to her bench after the timeout and leaves the rulebook on the officials stand which earns her a set of cards and a trip out of the gym. (She also lost her job as a result of this incident).
