I umpire FP softball too, and I remember one time in a USSSA Girls' 16U tournament game, the team finished its turn and bat and its HC kept its players in a huddle in front of its dugout for approximately 55 seconds. The team took the field and F1 toed the Pitching Plate; I gave her the Stop Sign, said Batter Up, and then said Play Ball. The coach started to complain about his pitcher not getting any warm up pitches and I told him why she wasn't getting any. Both teams hustled onto the field after their bats the rest of the game.
