I understand incidental contact the way the rule book states it. The point that Andy made about: You cannot apply advantage/disadvantage when a violation occurs. Advantage/disadvantage applies to fouls only.
I did not agree....I do not see where Advantage/disadvantage is stated in the rulebook to apply just to fouls.

As I stated before I went to the NCAA Meeting in Chicago on Sunday. We were told in that arena (may not apply to most, but some might hold the philosophy) to not call palming or carrying the ball unless they are blowing by an opponent. We were also told not to call travelling on spin moves unless it is really obvious. Marcy Weston (Supervisor of Women's Officials) told us that, "these most of the time are violations by rule, but do not call them unless everyone in the gym see there is a violation." Of course I am paraphrasing her statements, but that is the gist of what she said.
I realize this is not the NF Interpretation or what many might think should not apply to HS level ball, but that is what might filter down to the HS level. I can guess that similar things were told to the Men's Officials, but this was stated as "how the game is suppose to look like."
