If a player refuses, use R10-3-6(a). If it's a coach use R10-1-5(b), or if you want to make sure that a direct T is charged to him, use the generic R10-4-1-- "commit an unsporting act". Refusing a direct request from an official to get the game underway can certainly be construed and interpreted as an unsporting act.
