I'd also ask why the need to beckon at all?
In 99.9% of the cases:
1) the coach will see the affected player.
2) Any reasonable time lapse between the player (potentially) being injured and the time the coach gets out there won't affect the seriousness of the injury (e.g., the ACL is already torn, or not -- it's not going to "tear more" while the coach takes a few seconds to decide if the payer is really hurt or just landed awkwardly).
Our only real role is to deiced how long "immediately" is so we know when to resume play.
