This is not a situation that has a clear rule IMO to cover, so you do what you feel is best. And if giving a T is something acceptable in your area, do just that. I might get questioned, "Why were you still around" kind of comment if I gave a T. So this is really what are the acceptable mores of your area.

Fair enough.

How about an example for you then. During the switch between games, before anyone is warming up - perhaps even before more than 1 or 2 players have entered the gym, and one of the coaches is there earlier than the rest and says, "Oh great - you again." Or, worse. Maybe, "Oh great - you again. We've already lost." Or worse. Take his statement to whatever extreme you need to take it for purposes of the discussion.

I'm not that interested in how far the guy has to go to pull the trigger. I'm interested in how far before a game, in a setting like this, you feel you CAN justify a technical foul in that 2nd game.

Those comments you mentioned would not led to a technical from me if it was before the game. The coach just better be on their best behavior when the game starts by the way, but their pre-game comments would just tell me what rope they just will not get when they act out during the game. I am only imagining this from a high school standpoint and any pre-game or post game behavior would result in other penalties if they took place with school personnel. AAU is not the case and I might read the situation and do all kinds of things. But giving a T probably would be the absolute last thing I would be trying to do as it probably would have no real benefit.

Peace

I can almost always find a way to clear out of the immediate court area between tournament games even if it is just moving into the area near an adjacent court, or stepping outside or "behind" some equipment stored in a corner of the gym.

If I'm stuck for a place to run I stay with my partner so that there is a "witness" to anything that's said. If it's after the game has "ended" and I really feel something is out of hand I'll approach the tournament director and let him/her deal with it.

I'm avoiding any sort of T after the final horn/whistle in non-HS tournament such as youth or AAU.

I don't think I would issue a T for something done while I wasn't on the court. So anything that happened from when I left the court from game 1 to when I started watching warm-ups from the court on game 2 would result in a report to the convening authority but not a T.
