I frankly don't care on this issue. I do it, but I really couldn't tell you if my partners have. I could just as easily drop it if an assigner or other official I trust advised me to let it go.
That's how my captain's meeting became one sentence long.

Great post! Agree with you 100%. My captains meeting is short. They aren't listening anyway.
I point and I do it because I think the high school level players are getting dumber. I'm not sure they know which way they are going. Coming out of time outs, 9 out of 10 times, most teams don't even know who's ball it is.
I point to not have the teams start with a mess. If I was told to not do it, I would have no problem stopping.
