With apologies to Mel Brooks: "Rules! I don't need no stinking rules to call a personal foul for illegal contact!"

Exactly what I was told two weeks ago at camp. Coaches were complaining about it. A clinician told him that it has always been in the rule book. We as officials weren't calling it consistently, or in some cases at all. It was then addressed with the RSBQ. Still wasn't getting done, so now it is an automatic.
