My partners and I have used the speaking captain from time to time to try to help "clean up" things from time to time. This is especially true in high school "rivalry" games. If it is one player, we can address the player. If it escalates to a number of players bumping one another, etc., we will speak to the captain from each team to ask that they help us avoid having to take action. When teams are slow coming out of the huddle, we will mention it to the coach. We also mention it to the captain.

As JRut points out, this RARELY happens, but everyone once in a while it does.
