Well, you have several options, here.
1. ignore it, some of the older folks are not going to change,
2. ask the questions, "If a player REACHES IN and does not make contact with the dribbler's body, is that a foul?" or "If a player jumps over someone and does not make contact when gaining possession of the ball, is that a foul?" and try to guide them down the path of it must be some kind of contact (block, hold, push, etc.) to be a foul, or
3. send a note to your chapter indicating these two observations.
