Personally, my crew sets a steady pace of making the ball ready for play in 11 to 13 seconds and fairly strictly enforce the 25 second clock throughout the entire game. The only time the pace is changed is we slow it down when there is a blow out and the winning team is running it up.

In the three years we have done that no team has run a "hurry up" because we are faster than most teams can move. My philosophy is keep the game moving and interesting. If the teams choose to slow it down it will be their responsibility.
