Best Remedy for Coaches
I was talking with a partner a while back, and he told me about how one league punishes coaches who get ejected.
They are suspended for a game, and must officiate one game before they can return to the sidelines. Brilliant! |

He told me they work 3-man when this happens, so there's at least two competent officials on the game.

Does the league normally use officials who aren't licensed?
|
What level is this?
|
While I understand the thought process, we have discussed many times here before that many coaches don't really know the rules. So, while they will get a real feel for how hard it is, as has been stated - who are we punishing?
Coach may learn some valuable lessons though...which is obviously the point. |
I believe it's a rec league. Don't know much other than that.
|
Man, talk about the urge to throw someone under a bus!! :)

We have a school district here who goes further. ANY coach from ANY sport who gets ejected is FIRED. Not just their coaching job but their teaching job as well. It is open to a review of the ejection but they were tired of some of their coaches (non basketball) being ejected so they went this route. Amazingly, they haven't had a coach run since!

And I think that most sports insurance packages read that way also. |
The guy who told me about it was licensed with the state, but that doesn't necessarily mean every official in that league is.
