Usually at the lower levels, I find a standard that allows play to continue for the most part, while calling what "needs" to be called. A horrible non-first-contact double needs to be called, because of the advantage gained and because you can't reward something blatantly illegal. You wouldn't allow them to grab the net while blocking, would you?
As far as the BRA/BRB situation goes, if you see it, call it. I don't allow much leeway for stuff like that, because what happens if the first time they get called on that, it's postseason? I'd much rather introduce them to the correct rules while they can still fix the problem.
