That's absolutely ridiculous. You're really going to call a foul using as one of the criteria where it occurs on the court?

We've had almost yearly POE's from the NFHS telling us to call handchecking. That includes THIS year. We also have almost yearly POE's telling us not to make up our own rules. And that also includes THIS year. Obviously, though, it just ain't sinking in.

Lah me....

Think it will be a POE in 2011-12? I am leaning that way.

When a player has a hand on, two hands on or jabs a hand or forearm on an opponent, it is a foul.

I like it when they try to circumvent this rule by holding -- not jabbing -- a forearm into an opponent.
