Player A1 receives pass and holds, while closely guarded. I start visible count. I stop my count as A1 dribbles right but restart when he pulls up and comes back left, still closely guarded. On my fifth visible count the kid stops the dribble. The opposing coach is already screaming "that's Five", as I blow the whistle and signal the violation.
Coach A says, "He stopped his dribble and gets a new 5 second count".
It was already 5 seconds so the call was justified but does he get a new count when he picks up his dribble??
