We're Moving On Up, To The East Side, To A Deluxe Apartment ...

We did (stupidly) in the past, requiring officials (with no IAABO experience) to complete four years (cadet plus three additional years) of working only subvarsity games, followed by three years of working a mixture of subvarsity, and varsity games (only if your colleagues rated you high enough). A good official, even a very good official, didn't see a full schedule of varsity games until after their seventh year.
We were losing too many good officials who became frustrated, and impatient, with the system. Now we have a system where officials are observed by trained observation team members (who are excused from paying annual dues) who determine varsity, or subvarsity, status (with a little input from partner evaluations). There is no longer a minimum number of years of experience before one can move up, it's only based on how good an official is, as God intended.
