Big Daddy,
My daughter's team played two teams from Georgia in the RBC tournament this past weekend and the referees did let a lot of shoulder to shoulder action take place away from the ball. Obstruction, fouls, and pulling players to the ground were common. It seems the refs are willing to let them play physical until someone gets hurt or both coaches are screaming. I noticed the later in the day the game is played the less likely fouls will be called. I am sure the play is more aggressive for boys than girls. What to you tell your child, play your best or play like your opponent?
