I am not your mechanics guru, but I think we have ahd this discussion before and there is no real mechanic for the flagrant. And I have yet to have a flagrant called in any game I have coached, girls or boys. Seen a couple I thought could have been called.

Knock wood! Don't really want to be part of a game where that stuff starts happening.
Had one of these on Saturday in girls age 11 AAU game. Two players going for the loose ball on the floor, white 43 winds up with it and blue 12 lands on top of her, holding her down. Whistle on blue 12. Both players are then sitting side by side with blue 12 to the left of and slightly behind white 43. White 43 looks back at blue 12, looks at me, looks back again at blue 12, looks back at blue 12 again and gives her an elbow to the face. Ejection time! Coach's comment to me was: "she only did that to get even for being fouled". I couldn't believe that comment.
