Unfortunately it's legal to have arms over the line. And both boys and girls seem to be equally guilty of the sword fighting or hand jive thing. It's not a violation. It's usually not enough for a foul. But it is annoying. A brusque, "Knock it off" usually doesn't solve it (oh sure, they're both going to knock it off...just as soon as they win this round). Too bad you can't just smack 'em up side the head. It's quick, it doesn't cost either player a foul, and it would get their attention.

I've found a bit of attention tends to stop this behavior. "When you two are done, we'll get started."
