It is not taking the game away from the kids. It is likely that the result would be overtime once the clock is reset to :01 (in this instance). Let the KIDS decide it in OT.
Giving the offense a "do-over" is taking the game away from the defense.
I can tell you that when you explain to the coaches what is happening they will better understand the table messed up than your giving a team a second chance. I don't believe an assignor can defend their officials in this situation because the officials had knowledge that the clock did not start properly. We are not authorized to set aside rules.
