The captains meeting should be held 5 minutes before the game to set the tone. Captains should introduce themselves and their positions, and be reminded of clock stoppages, timeouts, and responsibilities to communicate with officials. The coin toss procedure is described, where the visiting team calls it and the home team repeats, then the winner chooses either offense/defense, what goal to defend, or to defer the choice to the second half while the loser picks from the remaining options. Pre-game equipment requirements include matching colored jerseys tucked in, a flag belt with 3 flags worn properly, and pants a different color than flags.
