I would hope the coach in the OP was practicing against the extreme and not teaching it, but it sounds as if he/she is a dumb a55. I bet he has his kids hoisting up three pointers every other possesion. |

Bump the cutters
At one of my varsity games earlier this year I heard the coaches telling their defensive players to "bump the cutters". First opportunity, I told my partner, what I'd heard and we needed to pay even more attention off ball than normal. Sure enough, early in the game, we have a foul on this team on defense, don't remember if it was a hold or a block we called, doesn't really matter but after the first one, we did not have a problem the rest of the game. I'd like to think we'd have caught this regardless, but their yelling, "bump the cutters" definitely helped us focus on correctly officiating this illegal off ball contact.

If your players legally get to the spot first, you'll never have a problem. If they don't legally get there, they'll get called. Whatever coaching verbiage that you're using isn't really relevant at all. Just because you teach your players not to foul is no guarantee that they won't.
