There are many things I would consider completely unnecessary that we still do. I do this for all games I do including varsity and JUCO and never really knew it bothered some people.
I do it more as a formality. I don't say "going this way....." but simply white and point one direction then blue and point the other. Again more as a formality but it can also clarify what we are going to call teams with two syllable colors that night as I'm a one syllable guy. So it let's everyone know that orange is red tonight or purple is blue tonight, etc.
Not a big deal to me either way but in the OPs case of beginning the game with a T its absolutely absurd to still have them line up and do this.
