Now, if he is just heading to the locker room (not acting like an idiot) I'm not getting involved, at all. I don't care if he asked his coach for permission or not.

Here, if a team member leaves the bench and goes to the locker room, he must be accompanied by a coach, assistant coach, or and administrator. Otherwise they must remain on the bench. The reasoning we have been given is for player safety.
