What should I do to warm up my section for sectionals??

I'm currently the Co Section leader of the trombones at my school, but I'm wondering what I should do to warm them up, other then Bb Concert scale, whole, half, quarter, eighths. And F Scale whole, half (no quarter/eighths as only a few of us can reach that 3 ledger G) so anyone got some tips for me? Any help appreciated! bye!

Don't forget long pedal tones and lip slurs. Long tones especially on cold nights (Christmas parades, anyone?). Gotta keep the 'bone warm.
