Right now the girls playoffs have started and if you are working boys basketball, the regular season is still going on. It makes it very difficult to work both and giving back boys games to work girls playoffs also is not looked highly on. Many assignors only assign one or the other, but usually not both. I do not think I have worked a single girls game in like 2 years and when I did it was one game that season as a favor to someone I respect and gives me a lot of very good games.

Here they typically don't play BBB on the night of a girls regional - and the boys season is typically over the Thursday of the first week of the boys playoffs.
My games next week are a boys regular season game, a girls regional, a boys regular season game, and a girls regional.
After that, both boys and girls are in the postseason.
