Was just curious how everybody else handles when a player is injured. You have an official timeout obviously, but what do you or do you not allow as far as conferences between coaches and players. The coach is not allowed out onto the field other than attending to the injured player. But are players allowed to go to the sideline to have a conference. Or players can come to say the hash mark to confer. Especially if you know the player will be down for a while.
Form reading Rule 3-5-9 I believe " An authorized conference may be held during a charged timeout or an officials time out (7h-unusual heat 7l- tv radio timeout and 7m-intermission between period, after a try/score; only)Only one type of conference may be used by ateam during any one time out.
I have had some people tell me that if a player is injured to allow a coach-player(s) conference in front of the team box. But make sure they are ready to go when the player is off the field. Do you agree with this? Or no conference? Players to hash mark?
We have honestly allowed and not allowed conferences. How do other crews handle this situation??
Thanks
