Is this okay?

One approach would be to ask the coach to bring up the topic at the pregame captains/coaches meeting, when the opposing coach is in attendance.

If I worked in a state where the coaches and captains all met together, I would not want the coach doing it there either. Then we're going to get into a back and forth about what officials should be looking for. Those meetings are not for coaches and captains to tell us how to officiate.

Agree. I don't want the coaches "debating" in front the player captains.

I actually posted this idea with the hope that it would politely "shame" him to be more reflective, finding it to be "inappropriate" to bring up the issue in front of the opposing coach, the officials, and the player captains.
