You need to know what the definitions of common and intentional according to the national federation rule book states. Just because a coach is crying "foul them" doesn't mean you have to call intentional if the foul appeared common. Use common sense officiating.
I would agree that we need to officiate with common sense
but the fed *wants* us to call intentional when the coach
yells "FOUL THEM! FOUL THEM!"
