Here's my referee's method:
Mic off:
Captains shake hands
Mic on:
R: "Gentlemen, we're here for the coin toss... here's the coin. This is heads (shows them the heads side), and this is tails (shows them the tails side). ______ you're the visitors, #XX, what is your call?"
Captain: "Heads"
R: "Heads is the call"
U (to myself, writing down on game card): "Heads"
Tosses coin.
R: "it is Tails, ____ you've won the toss"
Mic off.
Get get appropriate choices from captains, line them up correctly.
Mic on.
"______ has won the toss, and chose to receive. They will receive at this end of the field. Good luck, gentlemen"
Mic off.
Umpire writes coin toss results and choices on his game card, which is then copied by the rest of the crew during the toss. R generally fills in his card at our first opportunity after the game starts.
