Where is the warning.

I will echo the other question though ... what in the world is wrong with tackling at the shoulder pads and/or reaching over a blocker?

It could have resulted in a horse collar tackle.

That is true and possible, but it is not illegal to grab someone by the shoulder pads or it is not illegal or legal because of the height of the players involved. Again, this is a Pee Wee Coach that probably does not understand the rules on many levels and why the description was vague or incomplete.

Well, since you bring up BB "warnings" I did eject a coach once who asked the same thing. My warning was "OK. Don't trip on your way home...."
