Start counting in my head? What happens when I reach zero in my head? Do I blow my whistle and call the play dead? What if the ball is in the air on a shot when my self count reaches zero?
At .3. I hold my whistle. Blowing the play dead is a moot point. If the ball is caught, blow your whistle then and end the game. If it is tipped/tapped, the games ends on the made or missed tip/tap.

I'mm 99% certain that the current play starts with three seconds, not 3/10 second.

I'm 100% sure. I mistook the period as a decimal......Thanks for giving me a 1% benefit of the doubt
