Coaching Box Question

[Mark Dexter]

Had my first real game today (no more intramurals - hurrah!) - a good Jr. High Boys' Varsity game. Visitors won by 2 points, with home team taking a last second shot (it was late and it missed, so no debate there.)

Anyways, I had a technical foul on the visiting coach but (due to my years of reffing IM ball) forgot that loss of the coaching box was part of the penalty. I didn't realize until I looked over about 5 minutes later and thought "hmm - shouldn't he be sitting down after the T?"

I let it go, and didn't have him sit, and now I'm looking for a bit of advice. Would you tell the coach to sit down (even though you had forgotten for several minutes) and, if so, how would you recommend doing it?
