What you are describing is a foul.
I want to piggyback on what Rainmaker was saying.
Why do coaches make the game so complicated for young kids? It is one of the most ridiculous things. Here is what you can do:
1. Teach defense. Man-you-ball, arms out, feet moving, call for help when beat. Make the other team beat you from the outside. Challenge the ball and everyone else has at least one foot in the paint.
2. Teach ONE motion offense
3. Work on making deliberate/good passes and control the ball.
4. Shoot free-throw well
5. Shoot lay-ups well
6. You WILL win most of the time
I will add one more thing, teach the point guard to be a vocal leader on the floor and teach the PG how to push the ball. They can have so much fun when pushing the ball the right way.
