A few years ago, a FED POE contained some sentence to the effect that "If a coach tells the players to foul, it's an intentional foul."

This year (I think), FED rescinded that -- the coach's language does not determine the type of foul. The player's actions determine the type of foul.

Indeed.

That being said, as it happens, I was discussing this very subject with my partner yesterday, comparing 'code words'. His was 'Chinese'! No, I don't know why.

I used to use 'Get the ball'. My guys needed reminding on technique, and I always felt I was putting our actions in the best possible light vis-a-vis the officials.
