That's saying that if the official directs the student-team member to leave, they must leave with an adult. It says nothing about an adult being required to leave with the student if the coach tells him/her to "get off my bench."

I'd guess that most schools have rules about leaving a student-athlete unsupervised in such a situation, but is it actually in the playing rules?

Read Posts 2, 13, 14, and 17. Players/Substitutes are to remain under adult supervision at all times. If a Game Official sees a Disqualified Player leaving the Bench unescorted by an adult, it is the responsibility of the Game Official to see that the Disqualified Player is supervised by an adult at least within the visual confines of the Court.

For me this is where the rubber meets the road. Once said player leaves the court I could care less where they go or who is with them. You can't manage this situation any further. Hopefully a major a$$ chewing is waiting for them wherever that may be.

As much fun as that would be I doubt I'm ever gonna get my Tech-tacular! achievement. That's 5 techs in a row within 4 seconds of each other for you Halo fans.

That's where I disagree in this discussion.

And you can disagree all you want. BUT, by Rule, as long as that Disqualified Player is within the Visual Confines of the Court, he/she had better be under the supervision of an adult. Thereby making it your responsibility to ensure he/sher is supervised by an adult.

As long as he's on the court, he is under direct supervision. If I can see him, the coach can see him.

It's not my job to make sure an adult is parked in the kids shorts. Like others have said if we can see them they are supervised.

Updated, player has been removed from the team and will be disciplined as a student also.

That is awesome.

Kind of surprised the school went that far, but I think that's exactly what they should have done!

Does anyone "T him/her in the face"? For any Technical, I'm moving a few steps away from the player, then sounding the whistle and indicating Technical Foul, and then proceeding to leave the area and report. And if I'm concerned about a fight, I will get the players separated first before calling a technical. After calling the technical and ensuring no escallation, I'm leaving the area and my partner(s) can assess whether or not a second T is warrented.

If the player is being led off and does something that I feel deserves a 3rd T, I'm taking a step away from the player and pausing for a second before sounding my whistle and signaling a technical. If it's bad enough to deserve a 3rd T, everyone in the gym will know what it is for anyway.
