A punch, even if it missed, is penalized by a flagrant technical foul. It is classified as fighting.
I suggest hammering the whistle quickly and defusing the situation as quick as possible.

If the foul is more than i can ignore should I give them a techinical flagrant foul or what ?

Once the ball went through the net, the ball is dead. It becomes live again when it is at the disposal of the thrower-in. During this time, the pushing action you described is penalized using a technical foul. (Dead ball contact.) I don't think you ignore contact that is a "nice healthy push", especially since the ball was clearly through the hoop already.

On the girls side of things the game has slowed down for me-I am seeing the game in a way that I am happy with. Boys frosh/JV are also slowed down for me-just struggle with the bigger, faster kids still.....

I think that quality is more important than quantity. Do some summer games so you know what it's like, and the BS that could ensue. Other than that, for sumemrtime ball, concentrate on camps and perhaps healthy officiating discussions with your local comrades. I bet it won't be long until BV slows down for you!
