I also do not ask for speaking captains. It's pointless, IMO. I'll speak to any player, as long as they are respectful. I also think asking for a "speaking" captain can be demeaning to the other captains.
I start with the coaches and I move quickly:
1) Coaches, are your players properly equipped?
2) Please let us know on the timeouts whether you want a 30 or a full.
3) Have the players ready to go on the 2nd horn.
Players:
1) There are 3 (or 2) of us, and 10 of you. Please help us by demonstrating good sportsmanship by leading by example. If you notice a problem, please come to us during a dead ball.
2) Keep your shirts tucked in and help us with the loose balls. Stop play on the whistle.
3) Have a great time and good luck!
I know some guys who mention playing defense with your feet and to not handcheck, but that just gets you into trouble. I would never advise bringing up how you are going to call the game. That can only be used against you.
