Not in our state. Coaching box is only for head coach at varsity level. All other levels must remain in contact with bench in WI

If the Coach at a non-varsity level stands, stays in front of thier seat and is actually coaching the players I really do not have a problem with that, if they are standing to complain, warning then WHACK!

If I have an issue with an assistant coach, I'll talk about it with the head coach. I had one A.C. last year that was standing to coach a couple of times, but a visit with the head coach ("control your bench") took care of that.

I also had one a few weeks ago, a middle school game where the coaches didn't know that rule. No biggie. Still, there was a spectator I knew who had officiated that tried to tell me and my partner after the game that the A.C. couldn't be at the opposite end of the bench as the H.C., as it creates "an unfair advantage." No such NFHS rule exists. Anyone ever hear of this?

Yes, but not from an "ex-official" those comments generally come from the BCF!

Sounds like half the JV games I see. The coaching box is a privilege for VARSITY head coaches only in Wisconsin. If I was working the game (and I probably wouldn't be), I'd give a friendly reminder early on and the coach would sit. What's so hard about that?

I am not allowing him a coaching box I am allowing him to stand in front of his seat and Coach, not roam the sideline.

Organ Grinder?
Who on this board was it who said he'd say, "Coach, I'll listen to the organ grinder, but not the monkey."
Always wanted to use that line to the head coach when the assistant is getting out of order, but have refrained for reasons of possible offense.

If you're allowing him to stand, you're giving him a box. I, personally, don't care as I only work games with coaching boxes. But that's what the state (for whatever reason) decided.

Nope. I'd be happy to work a lower level game on a night off, if asked. I'm just saying that I have no personal stake in it on most nights is all. Sorry if it came off otherwise - I didn't mean it to.

Just curious; I'm assuming this is some sort of alteration of the coaching box rules. Are they allowed to stand whenever they want, just so long as they are physically touching their bench?

No, there is no coaching box at all. Everyone must remain seated.

All the exceptions are in play, of course. There is no coaching box in the lower levels, so the rules (as written) for such games apply.
