The contact was not severe or excessive. It almost looked like a routine football play where the ball-carrier gets knocked OOB. But there was also no attempt to play the ball.

We called them both common fouls. But I told the V team to knock it off or the next one would be called intentional.

Would you have called this an intentional foul?
