While this is a bit much for some people, here is a nice idea that I use with my partners. If it is a three man crew, the U1 tracks the time-outs of the HOME team and let's his partners know when the team is out of 30s. That way we don't have to ask the coach which type of TO he wants anymore. The U2 does the same with the VISITORS.
(For a two man crew, the Umpire takes the home team and the R takes the visitors.)
Try it, and see if you like it.
@ two of the DI camps I went to the past summer the clinician's were big on knowing the foul totals, foul trouble players, AP, and partners whistles. Not withstanding I have worked real hard to be able to do this for the most part without thinking to much about it. I have never tried to know or keep the teams time outs. I just always assumed that the table has this covered. After this discussion I can half way see keeping it.
