"Captain, if you take the result of the play, the other team gets a touchdown. If you accept the penalty for ______, then we will go back___yds. from this spot."
If the captain can't handle that explanation, then the coach needs to select another captain.
I will tell the captain, "You've got a tough choice, either take the result of the play which is the ball way up there OR you can accept the penalty for holding which will bring the ball back 10 yds from the flag and replay the down."
"We'll take them back."
"Good choice...you must be on the honor roll!" They always smile upon hearing that.
