I was doing a game on Saturday (VG) and a girl threw an elbow and made contact. I suspect she was trying to make contact, but I didn't push it. I T'd her, though. I was thinking that the rule change a year or two ago was mostly for non-contact elbows, and that we could still call a T if there was contact. Was I mis-remembering?

If it was an intentional swing of the elbow with contact, then I would have "t" her also. I dont think you could go wrong in this type of situation, unless you call nothing.

Sigh.
Do you have a rules reference that will allow you to call a technical foul for a live-ball contact foul?
By rule, for live ball contact fouls, you can call either a team control foul, an intentional personal foul or a flagrant personal foul.
NFHS rules 4-19-1 and 4-19-5 are the references.
