I LOVE a double foul. Everyone gets real quiet,because they are so startled. You report to the table very crisply, announce alternating possession, grab the ball, in-bound and GO!. Both coaches are breathless, because the opponent got a foul, and yet... by the time they figure it out, they should be yelling at the girls again. No one ever complains!! I LOVE a double foul!
I think I've called one double foul in 7 years. I don't like them at all. To me, it's kind of a "cop-out". In my own opinion, a referee calls a double foul under these circumstances:

1.) You've tried to talk two players out of a foul,
2.) you've been unsuccessful, and
3.) you realize that if you would have called a foul on either A1 or B1 to begin with (like you should have!) you wouldn't be in this mess!
