It depends on the level of play. GJV is borderline in my book. Schools are big, varsity teams go to state every year, some players get scholarships, that kind of thing, well it's just too bad for the players that stopped. Small schools where there isn't even a freshman team, kids never played before, their instincts aren't as well developed. Then you do stop, but remind them to play to the whistle next time, Then next time if they pause, use one hand to make a wheeling motion in the air, and say, "play on! play on!"
Also, before the game, you might have the horn sound a couple of times during warm-ups reminding the players to ignore it.
But, wait, did you say shot clock horn? Shot clock in a JV game? that's tough.
