I hope this one runs to 10 pages, and several bags of popcorn!

Has anyone ever called a violation for striking the ball with a fist. Called it two seasons ago on a player who blatantly punched a ball trying to stop it from going OB on the sideline. Coach thought it was a joke. Showed him the rulebook after the game and he said he had never heard of it in his 20 years of coaching.

AAU game last spring. Had a girl swing with the fist and miss the ball, ended up hitting the other girl on the collar bone. Called a foul and told her not to use her fist, or it would be an intentional. Coach is chirping about calling a cheap foul until I informed him of the fist. Didn't hear a word from him the rest of the game.
