I have used captains for this in the past, however, I will utilize any of the multiple captains, and, in fact, any player that I can identify as a "leader" on the team.

I know the rules tell us that each team has only one captain, but I really don't have any use for "floor captains", or "speaking captains". If I need a player to give me a hand, I'll find one, or more than one, whether they have an imaginary "C" on their jersey, or not.

I'd actually prefer to talk to a coach, but in the ebb, and flow, of the game, it's sometimes easier to talk to a player.
