Neither player was knocked to the floor or hit the back wall. H1 also did not follow through on the block attempt as there was no contact other than the body and some arm on arm. As I am reporting the foul the V coach was very upset that I didn't call it intentional. Our conversation went as follows:
VC: How is that not intentional? My player is vulnerable and she took her out.
Me: Coach she made a play on the ball. The contact wasn't excessive she didn't even knock her down. She didn't follow through.
VC: That is s**t
You can probably guess how that comment went over.
I understand it is probably a had to be there call but with my description should it have been intentional due to large amount of body contact?

From the description alone, I do not have an intentional foul. However, plays like this usually required video or are a "had to be there".
The the coach earned himself a TD for the language.
