What's the penalty

You sat the coach unnecessarily and saddled him with two unearned and undeserved indirect Ts.

Yep, I read it but only part of it apparently. The part I read was specific to Bench Personnel. Unfortunately the table doesn't address the bolded section below.

10.4.2 - Bench personnel shall not enter the court unless by permission of an official to attend an injured player

You are correct that I should have applied 10.2.2:

A substitute shall not enter the court without being beckoned by an official between quarters.

The more I do this the more I realize how much I have left to learn. Thanks for the reminder.
