Looking for any advice on alternative to how we handled this situation: Last nights game, boys varsity. Partner T's home coach. Tells him he has to sit for the rest of the game. Administer the free throws. Partner goes to division line for throw in. On my way to L, I tell the coach he has to sit down. Get ready for the throw in. Coach is still standing, in fact walking toward endline. Partner steps toward bench about a quarter of the way toward the table and said" "coach you have to sit down". The coach then folds his arms across his chest and says, "or else what?" Whack, he found out what. He was asked to leave the gym. I stepped in after the second call and explained to the coach why he got the second T. Should I have explained the coaches rule when I told him to sit down? I don't think he should have had to be told more than three times to sit down. This happened three minutes into the game and was really unfortunate and put a damper on an otherwise great game. Home team lost by 1.
