Yes, I've had several quiet conversations with coaches over the years that said "run over them if they're in the way". I'll leave the rest to your imagination.

I have never had a problem understanding "about to receive the ball" or enforcing it. But, the clarification would have been nice for those who had a hard time understanding what ASA meant.
ASA unfortunately has strange wording at times on rules, but that's what rules clinics are for and the National Staff or Merle who will be glad to interpret it for anyone that may ask. Too bad that ALL umpires and ALL coaches don't attend a rules clinic or don't listen at the ones they do attend.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.
