The important point is "Have a Pregame", not necesarily what is said AT the pregame. A pregame gets you on the same page with your partner, and confirms how you as a crew will cover the game. Around here at clinics and camps we say the mechanics we teach are not set in stone, they are guidelines - find what's comfortable and what works for you and your partners, and have a pregame to make sure you're on the same track. Of course, there are times when you MUST use prescribed mechanics - certain leagues and conferences want things done to the letter - but, like plate stances and strike calls, there is no real right and wrong way to do some things. But get the calls right!
