This is true. I've had this a few times in my career. If a coach tells me they are done playing, I specifically ask them if they are sure and that if I leave the field, its a done deal.

Every time the response was affirmative and my partner and myself calmly walk off the field.

Have had that happen a couple of times in school ball - outside me and my partners are calm looking, but inside its, 'YESSSS!'
