I have to make one correction for Southern Nevada. In Southern Nevada there is one president for the entire Association. There are board members for each individual sport.
Thx, I learn something new every day!

However, let me tell you that all of the Southern Nevada officials that I know that went to state, myself included, didn't care who won or lost. Upset will happen and we just didn't have that kind of personal bond with the coaches. I can only say this about the last 2 years. What happened before that shouldn't really matter. There are some good officials with good intentions in Northern Nevada. There has only been one big problem when I went to state and that was something that is flat out wrong. I will not elaborate but to say that we should give everyone a chance to work a game no matter what you think about them.
As you said the problems of the past should be left there and they are unfortunate, but according to those who have been around for many years they certainly happened and were caused by people from both areas.
I was very pleased with the attitudes shown by the officials towards each other at the state tournament last year. And I know that those "good officials with good intentions from Northern Nevada" realize that there are some wonderful officials in Southern Nevada and enjoy working with them.
