Speaking NFHS rules only, 4-19 defines all the various kinds of fouls. While an intentional foul is defined in terms of being a personal or technical foul, it is a different kind of foul altogether. It is the same situation for a player control foul; it is defined in terms of being a common foul, but is an altogether different type. Being different types of fouls, they even have their own penalties, seperate from common, personal or technical fouls.
Now the reason I bring up the analogy with the player control foul is that there are some well known rather distinctive cases in the case book that arise because a PC foul is not, in fact,
just a common foul. Like the one where B1 fouls A1, then A1 plows into B2.
In the same way, an intentional foul is not, in fact,
just a personal or technical foul.
