Coaches:
1. Introductions
2. Ask the 2 questions (players properly equipped & good sportsmanship)
3. Any questions?
4. Good luck!

Captains:
1. Introductions
2. "We expect you to keep your shirts tucked, pants pulled up & display good sportsmanship."
3. Very briefly boundaries/obstructions only if there's something peculiar that warrants it - otherwise no.
4. Questions?
5. Good Luck!

I'm a firm believer in K.I.S.S. - it should never take more than 15-20 seconds for either conference.
