Hi Everyone,
We have been told that all officials must call the intentional foul anytime the defence does'nt make a legitimate attempt to play the ball- every one accepts this; however, there are still many out there at even the highest levels who in big games bail out on this call and call the 1+1 commen foul. What are your thoughts on this and how are your association's handling it - right now it looks pretty inconsistent all over the world and really creates confusion to the coaches, players and fans. If we all were strong and called it right the problem would go away!

Pistol,
Called one last night in an 8th grade game with the Visiting Coach yelling "Foul, foul, foul!"
After the game, the Home JV Coach came into our locker room and asked about the call. I told him that I woulda passed on the intentional if the coach was not yellin'. And then I said to the JV coach, "That's the same call I made on you... 4 games ago." His reply was, "Oh, yeah, that
was you!"
Gotta love it.
