Well had first week with new rule and first problem. Was calling little kids (5th grade) and the Defensive team's head coach realized they had 12 on the field. LJ was slow in getting counted for some reason and snap happened. IP for 15 yards. I head the head coach yell time out after the snap but not before, probably due to all the yelling at the player to get off the field. My 2 partners did not hear him either until after the snap. He was pissed (but not over the line) saying he called time before. Told him I did not hear him. It did not cost him anything really other than the yardage as his defense tighten and kept the O from scoring.
I can already see that this is going to be a major problem, especially with a team outside the 15, he is yelling from the 25 and there is a good amount of yelling from the team box and/or crowd.

Anyone else have issues with this yet??
