I'm pretty sure that we are independent contractors in regard to recreation games, travel games, men's league games, etc.

I'll have to check with my accounting firm, Dewey, Cheatem & Howe.
You still can be an independent contractor, but I think this is on the organization that pays or assigns if they are not violating your rights like making you only work for them. Or not paying the proper taxes or filing the right paperwork for workman's comp. But many of these laws are state laws, not Federal laws.
