Why just get the teenagers involved, get some parents involved as well or other adults.

Besides the aforementioned devices, the other problem with teenagers is that their friends want to be with them.
Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on your POV, we have no say in the matter of who the schools provide to staff the table. The table at my games tonight were staffed by the principal and his secretary, who have been running the clock and book respectively for about 25 years. I'd love to have a staff like that at every game I do. But too often the table staff is an after thought. So we give them the 2 minute training, and we watch them as closely as we can and fix as many of their mistakes as we can. C'est la vie
