Question?
Can a referee sit a coach down without calling a technical on them?

Nope

Partner two weeks ago actually told a coach, "Go and sit down or I'll give you a technical." :eek: |
I've seen partners do it, but I wouldn't.

Based on what?

If you want him to sit down, why wouldn't you whack him? Pet Peeve of mine. If the coach needs to sit, you need to grow a pair and whack him. There are no bonus points for NOT whacking a coach.

Along the same lines: I have seen an senior official, during a dead ball, stop the game, pull two opposing players off the floor, both of whom had been playing rough and tell the coaches to provide a sub for each. He didn't T them up, just wanted them off the floor for a cooling period.

You can tell a coach do to a lot of things, it does not mean they have to listen. Some coaches will listen, other coaches will take offense. But if you stick a coach then you will not have to worry about what they are going to listen to because now by rule they are required to sit. ;)

haha . . . I saw a game end on this one. My old man was a coach and the ref told him he had to sit down.
The ole' ball coach informed him, no where in the rules did he have to sit down. The official told him he was responsible for managing the safety and conduct of everyone invloved so he was telling him he had to sit down or he'd have him removed. Coach says there is no where in the rules that says I have to sit. The official tosses him. No coach remaining on the bench high school rules say the game is now over. Game ends! |
Gator, Redskin, Gamecock or other?

Now, you've just issued an "order" that wasn't followed and have no recourse. |

Possibly ? Kind Of ? Almost ?

Once he loses this privilege, he still can stand for a few reasons: to request a time-out or signal his players to request a time-out; to confer with personnel at the scorer’s table to request a time-out for correctable error, or a timing, scoring or alternating-possession mistake to be prevented or rectified; to replace or remove a disqualified/injured player or player directed to leave the game; during a charged timeout, intermission between quarters and extra periods; and to spontaneously react to an outstanding play by a team member or to acknowledge a replaced player. If, after losing his standing in the coaching box privilege, he is standing, and doing something that's not on the list above, like yelling plays to his players, then, yes, the official can tell the coach to sit down. |
Gee - maybe the NF should adopt the rule we have in our local kids rec league - no coaching box.
