By rule, that is a foul. Whether you choose to call it is a whole 'nother matter.
That's my point.

Yes it is. It is also a rule that a defender may not put his/her hands on the offensive player while he/she has the ball--hence a hand check. How often is that called? Maybe 40-50% of the time.
I am not trying to dispute what you are saying. I agree by the book, it is a foul. In the other post, we discussed bumps and brushes. Very different in boys and girls game. Boys are able to make slight bumps into a defender and use that to an advantage, most girls are not. My point, and I may not have one..lol, is that the depending of the severity of the bump or brush will depend on whether a foul is called.

Don't you use the principle of the contact being a foul
if the player actually
gained an advantage?
What other criteria could you use?
