I occasionally end up doing table duties for games in which my children are involved. I've gotten a few compliments about a good table crew, keeping things smooth, and I think the local officials really appreciate not having to worry too much that things are out-of-whack there - and have built good rapport with them.
I also occasionally teach a local class on operating Nevco scoreboards and how to be reasonably good with them while being as accurate as possible. It's rather disconcerting when I go to a game (as a spectator) and see a high-function scoreboard and all you see is a clock, two scores, and if you're lucky two team foul counts...
Might be good to mention to the AD's that they consider developing the next generation of table crews too...
