The most common call heard next to the rugby field by coaches seems to be, 'I don't referee'. This might seem fair to outsiders, but in fact the lessons learnt by a school boys rugby coach refereeing not only his own team once in a while but other ages groups is the insight of what not to do, shout and comment about when watching other referees doing the thankless job.
I believe the coaches should referee and even allow their players to run with the whistle during training to show the hardships experienced in managing a game.
Let the parents come to a controlled training session and referee their own sons, with the aim of keeping the negative comments from the sideline to themselves in the future.
