Our team does the same. Staple members (team captain, mentors, PR group) has team email addresses that go on their business cards. We also took it a step further and setup a Google Voice account for the coach. This enables a easy transfer of 'power and communications' to another person in the time of crisis (that is if you look beyond the fact Google Voice number is free, therefore might disappear at any moment).
