At the level we play, non-contact is not an option, nor will it be as they move up. The game is physicial, and those who back off from it canot succeed at the higher levels. If my girls start backing off because of incidental contact being rules a foul, that would be detrimental to what I have taught them and how they need to play the game at higher levels, which is what I am really preparing them to do.
If it is a foul, by all means call it. But I have been in games where refs tried to help the team getting blown out by calling anything that looks like it might have had the possiblity of resembling a foul. I do not find that beneficial to my players, and will never find it beneficial.
