A large youth league (4th-8th grade travel teams) this year put in place a very strict policy regarding sportsmanship. It makes the head coach responsible for the conduct of spectators. Officials can have the coach remove the parents. If they don't, game is over. Additionally, there are provisions for further sanctions upon review by league officials and the referee coordinator.

It is too bad that this is necessary, but the clear language gives officials an unambiguous road map to deal with parents and other spectators in gyms where "game management" may be the biggest offender.
