Totally agree with the last couple of comments. There has to be some semblance of basketball being played before we can call it the right way. I've had some games that turned into the ugliest, fouling, clutching and grabbing I've ever seen. Those are usually the games where the PARENTS are up in the stands yelling at the refs and the other team.
Give me those SAME kids in a game where parents act civilized and you will have a cleaner, nicer game even if the skills aren't quite there yet.
I guarantee you when parents get too involved thinking they are getting cheated and the coach starts whining, these kids feed into it. I've had kids apologize for their parents before and hug me on the way out of the gym !
Also, "a foul is a foul"....just isn't true...it is a situational thing.....
