Where did you find the 1.8? I contend that all coaches, at every level, should be required to take the rules test and pass it. Then, they would be issued a card verifying such. At pre-game with the coach, you ask to see his card. If there is no card, you inform him that he is not qualified to talk about any rules with you that evening and that you will ignore any attempt to do so.
