The league barred Adams from leading New York against visiting Kansas City on Friday night for "violating the World TeamTennis Coaches' Code of Conduct."
Adams went onto Washington's side of the court to confront a Kastles player Thursday.
The league called this "the first punishment" for what happened between New York and Washington on Thursday. WTT said it "continues to investigate the incident to determine if there will be any additional punishments issued."
During the men's doubles match, a shot by Washington's Leander Paes hit New York's Robert Kendrick, prompting Adams and McEnroe to yell at Paes, the WTT said. The Sportimes were issued a code violation for unsportsmanlike conduct by the chair umpire because Adams and McEnroe entered the opponent's side of the court.
Four points later, Kendrick swatted a serve that hit Paes.
According to the league, that prompted reactions from Kastles players Olga Puchkova and Rennae Stubbs, who were on the bench watching from the sideline. Puchkova was issued a code violation warning for yelling at Kendrick. The WTT said Stubbs then protested that ruling by the chair umpire, drawing a code violation herself for abuse of officials, which cost the Kastles a point in the match-deciding tiebreaker in men's doubles.
The Sportimes won that match and beat the Kastles overall.
