Rick Pitino, coach of the Louisville Cardinals men's basketball team, at the edge of the coach's box.

The coach's box is a term used in numerous sports. In baseball, it is the space where the first base coach and third base coach stands.

It is also common practice for a coach who has a play at his base to leave the coach’s box to signal the player to slide, advance or return to a base. This may be allowed if the coach does not interfere with the play in any manner.[1]

In basketball, it's a line that represents how far a coach may come towards centercourt. In soccer, the coach's box is simply a term for the typical area that the coach or manager is standing.
