Title: Sidelines interference
Post by: bmem66 on October 15, 2024, 11:31:53 AM

I know UNS are non-contact fouls between players.  However, if the contact is between an official and a coach in the restricted area, is it a PF or a UNS?

It is sideline interference.  15 yards signal #29

It’s classified as Illegal Personal Contact.  Since the head coach is responsible for his team box, this foul is charged to him, and a second incident results in his disqualification.

However, an IPC does NOT combine with a USC for DQ.
