Luckily I have not experienced a whistling coach. What I would probably do would depend on reaction of the players (almost like an inadvertant horn going during play). If the defense or offence stops playing in some way I may blow it dead and resume with a throw in from the closest spot out of bounds. I would not allow subs unless it were for an injured player.
If a player travelled because he thought the whistle went - blow it dead and give it back to his/her team.

What rule are you using to back up either of these proposed actions? [/B]

Whatever rule allows us to make a decision on something not specifically covered in the rules.
(argh, don't have my rule books with me)
What would you do if there was an in-advertant horn (scorekeeper accidentally hits it or hits it after you've handed the ball to someone to throw in) and the offence or defence (or both) stop playing?
[/B][/QUOTE]If you have an inadvertant horn, you simply follow the
rule covering it. In this case, case book play 2.11.3 tells you what procedure to follow for inadvertant horns. What you can't do is make up your own rules. In the above plays, the rules do allow you to T up the coach if you feel that his whistling constituted an unsporting act and thus gave his team an illegal advantage. The rules do not allow you to negate violations however.
