Ponder this.....

1) As R, you toss the coin. Team A will receive. What is the best way to get the teams to place their backs to the goal lines that they will defend? I always tell them to place their backs to their goal lines and look at me, but many times they are just confused. Any non-fail tips?

I always face the clock during the coin toss. I step between the captains and looking at the captians who will defend the non clock end zone say: "Gentlemen, put your backs to this goal, please." and use a swing motion of my arm to move them. To the other captains, I point and say: "Gentlemen, put your backs to that goal, please." I am now in an easy position to get to the press box side to signal the choices.
