Handcheck (hopefully not GPS #7!!)

[donfowler]

NF POE says to call it.
NCAA Women's rules say call it.
I call it.
I agree with the east/west - north/south comment but if the dribbler is out front alone with the defender who has hands on him/her you have to call it.
Even though I did not like the requirement to call it as quickly as we are now instructed I must admit that by calling handcheck early and often games are much cleaning and I believe we actually are calling less fouls.
Smart coaches (yes, they do exist!!) are learning and having players play defense by moving their feet, not with their hands.
