Given the time left in the game, score, and the situation in general, I think a great official will do everything is her power to avoid the calling the Technical Foul, and then still issue it when she's done her part of not being a part of the game.

I'd call the T in your case.

This sitch is a perfect example of why not to hang around, and in fact to get away from, the coach and injured player.

I would have started walking away as soon as the C came onto the court. No need for you to be there.

If I were standing right next to the kid as the coach came out and he said that, I would probably T him. (Nah, I'd definitely T him at this age level!) But the best thing would be NOT to be standing right there. Anytime a kid goes down and the coach or trainer comes out on the floor get away from the kid. That way the coach has to either yell across the floor or chase you to yell at you. And in those cases, the T is easier to call b/c everybody in the gym knows what happened.
