I would have called all three, as you describe. I might give a little more leeway for a player who left before breaking the huddle... but if a kid came into the huddle, making 12, and the 12th waited until the huddle broke to leave, there is a very real chance of deception (intended or not), and this is what the rule was intended to prevent.
