The coach should be ashamed.

I would pull my kid out of any team that pulled this sort of stunt.

I'm sorry, but trick plays are the best part of pee-wee football. When I used to play, I always looked forward to running trick plays.

As long as it's legal, it's fine.

I'm sorry, but this play is not legal.
From the National Federation case book:
Rule 9.9.3
"...actions or verbiage designed to confuse the defense into believing there is a problem and a snap isn't imminent is beyond the scope of sportsmanship and is illegal."

If this is illegal, then why don't the refs call it? We have two links to this play being run, and the refs didn't call anything in either case.
