As a UIC, I'm not going anywhere near the field until requested by a member of the crew, not a player, coach or parent. If I'm near the field at the time of the play, I will disappear because if noticed, the coaches are heading in my direction and that is not the way it works.

If I ever need to talk to a crew about something that cannot wait until after the game, I will take them some water between innings and have a very relaxed discussion with the crew. Of course, I will take them water anytime they need it, not just when there is an issue.
