Delay at Beginning of Game
Team huddles after introductions and anthem. Doesn't respond to "let's go red" or whistles. What are our options?

1) Keep cajoling.
2) T


3) "Resumption of play"?
4) Charge a TO?
5) ?

Are you going to place the ball in the center circle?

5-4-1 states that the referee shall forfeit the game if a team refuses to play after being instructed to do so by any official. That would have to be the last resort, but could be used as a "threat".

Nothing (officially) for one minute...

Under Team Technical
10-2-5: Allow the game to develop into an actionless contest, this includes the following and similar acts:
a. When the clock is not running consuming a full minute through not being ready when it is time to start either half.
However, encouraging them to come out is probably what I'd do...up to that 1 minute.

I think you give them a stern look and tone and get them out there.

Be proactive
Be proactive. Next time it happens, have all three officials gather in the circle, join hands and sing "Kum ba yah"... that'll get them out there.

It's a T if you let it get that far, as others have pointed out. I just walk into the huddle blowing my whistle. Honestly, it works.
