This just happened to a fellow ref about a month ago -- just before the season started. He had a major falling out with his assigner with whom he had worked for two years over the number and type of games. He essentially "fired" the assigner. We are in suburban Boston and there are a lot of games available from many assigners. It meant he had to scramble to contact three of four new guys, and maybe travel a little further (emphasis on little) but it has worked out well for him. Since he is available for freshmen and JV (freshmen starts at 3:30), he is in a good position. There is always the need for refs for the early games.
