I tell the player when you defend a shot and put your hands straight up you're fine, but when you intentionally extend your arms 45 degrees and delibertly attempt to cover the shooters eyes it is an Unsporting Foul.
To be honest when I first started calling these I reported it as a foul...now I give em' the "T".  |
If you called a "few" of these, and there have been others that you didn't call, it's likely that you're "over applying" the rule. That is, what you are seeing isn't really a technical foul.
