I hate telling the players things like this: "we're looking for palming/carrying/traveling/hand checking" for the very reason you note; you're setting yourself up.

My pregame with the coaches:
"Hi Bill, good to see you again. Are your players properly and legally attired? Good luck."
(They get confused because, apparently, not every coach is named Bill.)
Wash, rinse, repeat.
My captain meeting is just about as short.
