How do you call 'em?

Our crew has backed off the whistle this year. We're allowing the players to play a little more. Early in the year, we had two sloppy teams and blew 63 fouls in the game. We decided then that they would just have to kill each other because this wasn't working. In our next two games combined, we had called less fouls than we did in that one game.

They'll play through the small bumps and pushes most times. If they don't, then the foul is obvious. Coaches seem to prefer fewer fouls. You just have to be careful that you don't pass on too much. It's a very fine line.

Isn't it odd that the NFHS clinics said to let'em play more and the CCA said clamp down more?
The college game and the high school game are very close because of those directives.
