Can't imagine anything, other than an earlier warning and toss.

Have you ever made it that far without getting tossed?

I haven't been tossed from table duties, as I've never given the officials any reason to toss me.

Then there are a few options to explain this.

1. You're coming across to the officials much differently than your words imply.
2. Officials there are taking way too much direction from the timer.
3. They're ignoring you. FWIW, "ignoring" can mean answering in platitudes because it's easier than telling you to drop it.

When I say stuff concerning rules/regulations, it doesn't happen every game, normally just one or two games a year. So that is something I'm not doing all the time.

I mention what I see as observations not anything else, as I leave it up to the officials to make the final decision on what action to take.

This makes me chuckle every time you say it. As if it is by choice that you "leave it up to the officials...."

With having the 2 coaches standing at the same time, I didn't quote the rulebook nor mention anything about what the penalty is. However, right before the Boys' Varsity game, the officials did give a warning to the visiting team before tip-off that only the head coach had box privleges, no one else.

It was the same crew that did the Boys' C-Squad game.
