The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.
A-3 is charged with two technical fouls for unsporting conduct. The official tells the coach that A-4 must leave the gym.
Is the official correct?
The official is NOT correct. Although adult personnel must leave the gym if they are ejected from the game, this does not apply to players. Players are ejected to the bench. The decision as to whether such a player should be sent out of the gym rests with the head coach of that team.
