Which coach?

As far as I'm concerned, the HC is the coach that attends my pre-game meeting.

That's who gets to stand in the box and who gets to ask me questions and call timeouts, etc.

There's some case play (or interp) regarding "co-head coaches". Apply that reasoning.

I couldn't find the case but wasn't for lack of looking! Any direction?
There is food involved, this is important!

If I tried enforcing that around here, I'd be 'that guy.' Even worse, as there is zero rule support for it.

Not here in the Land of Steady Habits. Some head coaches refuse to attend the pregame meeting, in fact, we have a special guideline for this specific situation:

Captains-Head Coaches-Officials pre-game meeting should occur prior to start of game. If the head coach
refuses to attend the meeting, notify Board Commissioner, who will notify the school athletic
director and CIAC.
