I had this once:

A1 going in for an uncontested layup. B1 tries to catch up, and when realizes she can't block the shot, she yells loudly and almost directly in the ear of A1. I held the whistle for a split second, let the shot be in progress, then issued an unsporting T.

There's no place in youth athletics for such behavior.

Other than the fact that the yelling was right in A1's ear, I have let it go.

This is my thinking as well. No need to display such an action. So yelling in the opponents ear so as to distract the offense is Unsportsmanlike. I just want to be able to back it up with something in the rules or guidelines.
