Pre-Game Captains Meeting
I am looking for some input on what others say during their pre-game captains meeting. The general flow of our conversations go like this:
R: Coach A, Do you have an administrator?
Coach A: Yes
R: Coach B, Do you have an administrator?
Coach B: Yes
R: (to both coaches) Are your players legally equipped and will demonstrate good sportsmanship?
Coach A and B: (faintly) yes
R: Who are my speaking captains?
A : 32 B: 10
R: White take care of white, blue take care of blue
R: Good luck....
Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with how this goes, but its become so repetitive with players and coaches, that I think most of them aren't paying any attention. The other night, I said "Coaches, my partners are not going to make any mistakes, but I will, come to us if you have questions." Just trying to see if they were awake....got nothing.
