BTW, is the NF rule the same as NCAA in this case? 1 and 1 on the 7th, 8th and 9th fouls and double bonus after that? I do some college games under NCAA rules, but I have never refereed under NF rules.
For your information, FIBA does not use the term bonus but rather penalty like the NBA. In this case, it's bad. The team in the penalty will have FT shot against them on any ensuing foul.

And just to complete the academic discussion...
It's not double bonus. On the 7th-9th foul and team gets 1 FT plus a "bonus" FT if they make the first. On the 10th foul, the bonus becomes "automatic". Technically, it is called the "automatic bonus". "Double bonus" would imply that they could receive upto 3 shots....the first plus the first bonus and then a second bonus.
