FED coaches and captains meeting

What say you ?

We also do captains and coaches separate. We don't even do the coaches together.

This, in my Association

Captains-Head Coaches-Officials pre-game meeting should occur prior to start of game. If the head coach
refuses to attend the meeting, notify Board Commissioner, who will notify the school athletic
director and CIAC.

Our area of Southern Cal (inland) does the coaches meeting at the table & meets with the captains at center court.The neighboring area (Foothill) does each coach separately (usually at their bench) and then the captains at center court.

Captains at 12 at center court.
Coaches at 3 at the table.

Coaches/captains meeting at 5:00 is what we do around here. After about a 20 second meeting (sportsmanhip, tell coaches to let us know full or 30, get the ball to an official after a whistle), we shake hands and say "good luck".

In my little corner of Connecticut (5:00, head coaches, and captains (if necessary, all twelve of them):

1) Players properly equipped?
2) Players wearing uniforms properly?
3) Practice good sportsmanship.

"Have fun".

No, "Blue line all the way around". No, "Who's the speaking captain? What's your number? Are you starting?".

Like the title of my post, short, and sweet.

Ditto.

[Zoochy]

We meet with Head Coach and Captain(s) @ the 5 minute mark in front of the table.

NYC Boys we get coaches & captains around 12. We ask the coaches if everyone is properly equipped and whether everyone will exhibit good sportsmanship then we send the coaches on their way.

NYC Girls we don’t have to bring the coaches out since we use modified NCAAW rules.

In my association we have the Coaches and Captains meetings and always identify the "speaking" captain. This is the person we ask before the ball is tossed if their team is ready to play.

Some here still ask for speaking captains.

I do not.

Never have. Never will. If a player comes to me and asks me a question or a request to watch something as long as it's done in a respectful and courteous manner I will gladly oblige. Regardless of whether or not they are the captain.

I will never tell the captains it's the grey line ...

My message is something like this.

Shirts tucked in.
Subs to the table.
Nothing goofy in the hair ( for the girls season)
take care of your players

good luck, have fun.

With the coaches- introduce myself.

Remind them to indicate if they want a 30 or 60 and to break the huddle on the 1st horn. Good luck, and have fun.

Do you ask that person even if they are not one of the starters?

[Kingsman1288]

Before league play starts, coaches and captains are separate. Once league play starts, we meet with the captains, coaches AND game admin at center court.
