Sure teammates could help them but I've found it to be faster and more efficient if I help them. If I can't do it in less than 25 seconds off they go.
I don't see any problem (liability) in doing this.

At last year's NFHS rules meeting in Illinois, we were specifically told NOT to do these things for liability reasons. I've taken it to heart and won't help players with equipment problems.
