Like everyone else says, if it's loud enough for the crowd to hear, give the T. If it's only heard on the court, remind the player to watch their language as soon as possible. If it's an adult league, I had some success the one and only time that I worked adults, by mentioning this in your pregame. Tell them right off about your concerns with kids being in the stands and let them know that if they are swearing, you are going to assess the T.
