If the officials are allowing a bit more contact, and a team doesn't adjust defensively, they're putting themselves at a disadvantage by not pushing the limits of what's being allowed during that game.

I'm not quite sure where you're going with that. Rocky is right, just teach your kids how to play the game right, period. The rest will take care of itself. Worrying about the officials style and tendencies will get you beat everytime. Worry about what the other teams does, that's who you prepare for. I think you can guarantee your team that the officials in the game will call a foul when a foul occurs, but in the event you don't hear a whistle, you don't stop playing.
