Nevada-
Handled by 3 associations for the entire state. These are contracted associations with the NIAA (state High School Association). Each association has a board. Assignments are now handled by each association, either through a group assignment process or through a single assigner. Since Nevada is so spread out, each association covers a certain geographic area, so there is no need to join more than one association.
Games handled by the North association that I belong to, is middle school and high school. You cannot go out and get individual games for high school in this state, because by contract with the NIAA, the schools have to use the associations.
Training consists of meetings and a clinic and all officials are required to pass a recognized test. This will be the first year that we are going to an open book take home test. Officials get on the court here quickly and if you have some talent, you can move up.
