JLC,
There is one other thing I meant to add to this post and that is alot of the time (especially girls) control the pass with a dribble. Coaches need to coach the players to catch the pass with two hands and then dribble. They catch the pass with one hand pushing the ball to the floor. In my mind this constitutes a dribble. If the player catches it with both hands and drops (fumbles) it while trying to control the pass, the dribble would still be available to the player. On the one hand control with the dribble, if they can't control the ball, the dribble is over if the official deems the catch with one hand and put to the floor to be a dribble.
