Sportsmanship Message:
"Actions meant to demean opposing contestants, teams, spectators, and OFFICIALS are not in the highest ideals of interscholastic education and will not be tolerated."

Coaches should know that and be mad at their own players for their stupidity. If a coach were to get mad at me, I'll just say "hey coach, you were there when I (or my partner) read the sportsmanship message before the game."

If you whacked a kid for giving you a high-five I don't believe the initial reaction from the coach will be to chew the player @ss. That's why I said, "Are you kidding?" I am not debating the validity of the T itself. I just can't see you not getting an ear full first.
