Solution:
The rules already allow the coaches, by agreement with the Referee (in Varsity games) to shorten the length of a quarter.
So, when one team is holding, and the other is playing back, the coaches negotiate a shorter quarter (say :30), the R agrees, the timer sets the clock and re-starts it.
