Had the exact same thing happen in a junior high game today, and since I wasn't the one doing the coin toss and the guy who was is a very experienced official, I had to let it go. But one team ended up kicking off to start both halves when I'm sure that wasn't their intention, but the 7th or 8th grader, whatever he was, was confused and I thought just asking him twice wasn't enough.

Now, thanks to this thread, I'm going to do the two-tiered deal on coin tosses that I'm in charge of.
