I'm interested in seeing if this really happens as much as the FED thinks.

I called it last week in one of my varsity tournament games. Didn't catch a word of flak about it. That isn't the first time I called it either. I like it. I think the federation was correct in assuming that the reason we didn't call the elbowing before was due to the large penalty for the "clear out" by either the post or the trapped guard. The violation is a happy halfway point to get something called, without going to free throws, and added personal foul, and an added team foul. BOOM! call the elbowing violation and go on....
