Rut, we are just pressing you for your reason for countering what the rest of the adults responsible for a smooth game, coaches, (presumably) game management to rule "no warmup".

No one has doubted your authority to deny the warmup.
It has been established that rules allow a referee to rule either way on this.

So the question is this, what is your REASON for going against the coaches on this matter?

Would you be concerned about the game finishing on time?
Would you not want the fans to be bored watching them warmup?
Would you be concerned that both teams warming up would somehow give one team a competitive advantage?

Your lack of any logical reason leaves me thinking you would say "NO" just because you can. That kind of arrogance, if this is in fact the reason, leads to some of the worst kind of officiating.
