A1 has the ball for an AP throw-in. A2 fouls B1. Team A doesn't lose the arrow.

Hmmmm.
I am confused by this one, too. I understand the points above, and they are helpful. How would it be if an A player fouls B on the first shot of two, before the ball is released, I call it intentional. It is definitely "excessive contact!"
I was just attempting to show one of the few consistencies that exist in NF rules. Commit a violation in either of these situations and you lose something, either the arrow or a FT.

Commit a foul and you don't lose anything, but the opponent gains. He's either guaranteed to get the ball for a throw-in or shoot FTs.

Just one way to look at it.
