To break up the pile, American players will understand the following phrases:

Get up easy
Roll off
Use the ground

When introducing officials just say:

I'm your Referee today and I am Joe Smith
This is Bob Jones your Umpire....

I personally don't like Mr. Referee or Mr. Official, but it is commonly used by many. We don't normally introduce captains to the Referee, but we will ask the captains to introduce themselves to the opponent's captains and shake hands.
