I'm a big believer in Camp #1. I've watched games where the officials in this type of situation don't call the light one and then next thing you know, a kid slams somebody. If there's an opportunity, I get together with my partner(s) and we basically agree that since we know they are going to foul, on the first contact give them what they want. That way, you (hopefully) avoid the hatchet job. As long as there is a play on, or something that looks like a play on the ball, I'm calling the common foul. A grab of the jersey, the bearhug, a blatant shove, etc., that's intentional.
