Use whatever time....
Use whatever time you get. We are in no place to demand any amount of time. Talk to the coach and find out what he/she wanted to accomplish by your visit. Then brainstorm about other areas the coach might like help. This could turn it into the better part of the practice. Sometimes I ref my daughter's team scrimmages (8th grade). We don't stop the play, but I yell what I would call. That way they know that would be called a foul, travel, whatever....
Also, volunteer to meet with the parents during any extra portion. Advertise the time as explaining the 5 most misunderstood rules, plus ask any question you want.
