At the end of time outs, we have several "tools" to use to get the teams out of the huddle:
1) 1st horn (oftentimes, that does not work by itself).
2) a quick/short whistle "very near the huddle" (I ALWAYS use this).
3) verbally saying "1st horn" (I ALWAYS use this as well).
4) since we know who the floor captain is....I use his name to get their attention: "Captain Steve! 1st horn - LET'S GO!" (in general, people listen better when you use their first name - it gets their attention).
5) as a last resort, i'll lean INTO the huddle and blow my whistle again. A FOX40 whistle a couple of feet from someone's ear usually does the trick (they usually do anything they can to avoid it happening again!).
Try them out in your next game....you may find them helpful.
