Get captains and coaches together at mid-court and regurgitate the GHSA script- "Coaches, are you players properly equipped and wearing their equipment properly?" Translation - we are also the fashion police, so be sure shirts are tucked and pants above the waste. Also. "Good sportsmanship is expected".
Dismiss coaches and tell speaking captain to control teammates and coaches. Good luck and have fun.

This is a 30 second meeting. The players aren't listening anyway. Not the time for a rules clinic and court description.;)

When the kids run by during intros to fist bump us (I hate that, btw), I say "play hard."

I try to avoid saying "good luck" because someone, somewhere is going to mistakenly interpret that as me "rooting" for one team over the other (although if it was in the captain's meeting to both teams, it's less likely)

I say it at the captains meeting, when captains from both teams so there better not be anyone mistaking it as me rooting for anyone. I also say it when I meet each team's head coach.

NO captains meeting in FIBA. Mucccchhhh better system.
