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.
Before I swung my officiating goals to football, I was successfully implementing some of what Nevada does. It didn't take long - only 1 season to remember timeouts (sometimes including location on court when requested), team foul counts, and if star players had 4.

I echo the try it sentiment.........
