Coach question?

I have a particular GV team in my area whose head coach is in a wheelchair. My question is can the assist. coach stand for the V coach in this situation? I've not extended to the assist. coach any other privileges allowed by rule as of yet but I know this is going to come up sooner or later.

SteveM,
I would allow the assistant to be head coach for the night, but I would, then, not allow the "real" Head coach address the officials as head coach for he would be Assistant for the night.

It's all or nothing, unless I am advised otherwise with approval from the opponent.
