Coaches on Sidelines Who "Need a Get Back Coach"

[NormanDale]

More than any other year, I have had problems this year with coaches being on the court. It seems to be worse when they are kneeling or squatting. It doesn't seem to matter if its a small or large gym, whether they have 3 feet or 6 feet from bench to sideline. I've asked for their help, asked them to move back, joked with them about a tether cord,stood in front of them, etc.

99% of the time it hasn't been a problem and doesn't impact the game, but I am afraid one of these times they are going to impact a play or I am going to go flying down the court and run them over.

Anyone have any techniques for this? If your answer is warn 'em then whack 'em, save your keystrokes. I am trying to come up with a more proactive way.
