ART. 5 . . . It is not legal to use hands on an opponent which in any way inhibits the freedom of movement of the opponent or acts as an aid to a player in starting or stopping.

~~As long as it doesnt impede the players progress.~~

[From POE 2003-2004]
A. Handchecking: Regardless of where it takes place on the floor, when a player continuously places a hand on the opponent, it is a foul.

You have hit the nail right smack on the head, which then begs the question to the rest of the Forum:

B1 is directly in front of A1 and is guarding A1. A1 is either a) holding the ball, or b) dribbling the ball. Why does B1 have to put his hands on A1?
