I get why YOU assign 15 months out, in the context of the way things work in your state. My point was that overall, as a system, I would not be a fan and am glad games here don't generally go out more than 3 weeks ahead of time.

On the other hand, I get paid to assign games once. Not assign, have a turn-back, assign again, etc. etc.
Note -- I don't work for the association or for the officials. I hire for the schools and they pay me.
We do assign singles for a few schools -- those 6 schools I outsource to an association who does do some assigning as part of what they do. Those assignments are usually done about 6 months in advance.
