In my games the is SUPPOSED to start when I or my partner chops in the time. But it actually starts when the timer pushes the button. Last nights game the timer was apparently distracted and after hearing the hollering that the clock didn't start, I looked up and sure enough, the clock wasn't running. At that point, I was counting for a closely guarded play and then they threw the ball out of bounds. Since I had knowledge of some of the time that didn't run off the clock I had the timer take that time off of the clock. If I hadn't had a count going it would just be sorry coach!
