Frank, sounds like you had fun.
As JR said consistency is key.
Also key is flow - let them play through contact, decide what's worth a whistle & what's not.
If I understand your description passing on the second foul might have been a good idea. If A2 is an animal you'll have an opportunity to pile up good fouls on him.
As for the boxing out scenario: if A1 can't hold his ground behind B1 while B1 is trying to establish position on a rebound it's not your place to equalize the field.
But as JR said the players & coaches must adjust to what the crew is calling. Never adjust your calls to how the players are playing.
