Q #1: I usually tell them to go for the ball. But don't be so quick to whistle said foul. What if they STEAL the ball? Anticipate the play, not the call.
Otherwise, you might have to call an intentional, as Mark points out.
Q #2: For rec ball, you did the right thing. You can't let someone get away with an unpenalized foul. You'll 'never' see this called at the 'higher' levels.
...good job.
