Coach Tools and Information

Clarification on an unwritten rule:

Many of our coaches have been told by the refs that only one coach is allowed to stand and speak. I could not find clarification of this rule in the CYO handbook. Here is clarification from CYO:

This is one of those rules that is dictated by the NFHS rules; rule 12, section 2, article 5. Assistant coaches shall remain seated on the bench during a set…

They are allowed to stand to verify information with the second referee (or score table in our case) during a dead ball, greet a replaced player, team time-outs, “Spontaneously react to an outstanding play by a player(s) of their own team”, attend to an injured player.

 It does not say an assistant coach cannot speak, but there are a list of unsporting  actions which includes disrespectful words.
