Worked my first scrimmage yesterday also. We took the time prior to tip to take a few minutes and talk about the rules changes that they would be dealing with. We covered this one in some detail mentioning that this one is the one that will confuse most fans and players (for a few games). If you have additional scrimmages I suggest taking a few minutes to explain to the players and coaches what the changes are, this will help them to understand what officials are being asked to do.

As far as a quick whistle on the play, we also told them that if this did happen that the officials would have some 'splaining to do. If we kill it while the defensive player has the ball, we have the dreaded inadvertant whistle, which goes to POI, which still results in the defense getting the ball that they really shouldn't have gotten.

PS. We also talked about the POE's.
