Difference between flagrant and intentional?

I worked a girls 8th grade game yesterday and had an intentional foul call. A1 had the ball. B1 grabbed it away from her (no contact) and then A1 pushed B1 in the back with both hands. After I reported it, my partner (a young guy) asked what would have made me call it flagrant instead of intentional. I told him that if the push would have knocked the girl down or would have made her stumble across the floor, I would have called it flagrant. He just nodded and said, "Oh yeah. I see." I thought the original call was the right one. No complaint from the coach, either.

BTW - both teams double bonus both halves. Yuck.
