I have heard of leagues adding fouls, but taking them away?

Only four fouls before you get benched, that is tough, especially for younger players.

In these setting, I try to help the player when I can. I can say that is from experience, though. When I was a second year official, I would have never tried to "talk" players out of fouls like I do today. I applaud the guy for his preventive officiating, but why did the official notify the coach that the player was in foul trouble? Is it a league thing? He should not be concerned with how many fouls that player has, it is up to the book to notify the coach if needed.
