Right. Those don't come up often, but if you're dealing with an older and smaller gym where overhangs are close, they need to be pointed out. Come to think of it, there's a brand new (built last year) gym where the side baskets don't retract! (A little oversight.) There's also a local middle school gym where one set of bleachers literally end flush with the sideline. You have to improvise throw-ins a little there.
Other than that, it's the usual: Is everyone properly and legally equipped? Can I expect good sporting behavior from everyone here? I don't do speaking captains, but I always end it with the aforementioned, "Head coaches, and players on the floor, question anything you like, as long as you're civil about it. Let's have fun!"
