I'm a softball ump who works the table for local high school basketball games. We have to remind players all the time to check in on the X where the official scorekeeper is and not their own scorekeeper. Some coaches will remind the players themselves after a few times of telling them, some coaches think we're being nit picky.
When a team has players that don't check in a few times, we'll blow the horn and call the refs over. I have seen some refs call a technical and I have seen some refs ask us why we were stopping the game and calling them over for something like this.
I guess it all depends on the crew.
