blocker may not initiate contact with his arm or hand against an opponent above
the opponent’s shoulder, but he may use his hand or arm to break a fall or
maintain his balance.
The contact above the shoulder - couple of times a year. The "flipper" as it was called when I played - maybe once every three or four years.
