Need more info on the first one but the second should be a minimum INT

2012‐2013 Points of Emphasis

2. Contact above the shoulders. With a continued emphasis on reducing concussions and decreasing excessive contact situations, the committee determined that more guidance is needed for penalizing contact above the shoulders.

a. A player shall not swing his/her arm(s) or elbow(s) even without contacting an opponent. Excessive swinging of the elbows occurs when arms and elbows are swung about while using the shoulders as pivots, and the speed of the extended arms and elbows is in excess of the rest of the body as it rotates on the hips or on the pivot foot. Currently it is a violation in Rule 9 Section 13 Article.

b. Examples of illegal contact above the shoulders and resulting penalties:

Contact with a stationary elbow may be incidental or a common foul.
An elbow in movement but not excessive should be an intentional foul.
A moving elbow that is excessive can be either an intentional foul or a flagrant personal foul.
