I can usually count on one hand the number of times per game the girls will attack the ball on a rebound and jump and go get it. That is the biggest adjustment I have to make doing both boys and girls games...at times the very next night...is that the basket violations come into play and I have to split my focus more.

I've had zero hs girls' games with any play above the rim. But that doesn't mean that they just bunch up under the basket. "Girls' play horizontal, it's that simple, and that means more contact" fine so far. Why does that mean more players in the lane after a shot? I don't follow you. And thus less focus on the ball by the official? Wow, I hope not!
