Why are intentional fouls (2 shots & possession) rarely called in youth games.

Well, probably the reason you don't see two shots and possession is it is now classed as 2 shots+POI.

If the situations are occurring like you describe it, contact your local official's association.

Do you use FIBA rules? Because this is definitely not true in NFHS, and to the best of my knowledge, it's incorrect in NCAA also.

Two shots and the ball at the designated spot closet to where the foul occurred so same for NCAA.

FIBA penalty for an Unsportsmanlike Foul is 2 FT + Possession of the ball at the division line.

Incorrect? Maybe I worded it incorrectly. It's 2 shots plus the ball at the spot closest to the foul.

FIBA is 2 shots and a throw in straddling the division line so you can go either front or back court.

If memory serves, Fed used to be 2 shots and the ball at centre for an Int- same as a T.
