Double foul or?

Again, what difference does that make? They did it. They're both out there slapping each other; not jostling for position or doing anything that's remotely basketball-related. And you, and others, plan on letting 'em get away with it. Imo, that's just wrong with Grade 7 kids.

If all of the other players on both teams start slapping the hell out of each other later, are you gonna give every one of the them the benefit of a warning too before calling any fouls? Gotta be consistent, y'know.

Imo you can warn 'em if they're starting to go a little too far in something that's basketball related, like jockeying for position. But when they get into slapping, taunting and other extraneous crap, especially at that age, it should get called. Calling the fouls is your warning.

Again, jmo Juggler.
