Seems to me RefRX that your system works well. I know for sure that our system doesn't work that well. It comes down to if the coach knows you or not in Kansas.
I have only been officiating for five years now and have been lucky enough to officiate two 1A (lowest class) regional tournaments and two Sub-state tournaments (1A & 4A). I believe that I have a polished look out there (one armed official, proper mechanics, etc...) but am beginning to believe that it doesn't matter that much!
I do like the rotation system that you use in Washington. The same officials work the tournaments just about every year. The only rotation that they use is that maybe you officiaite a 1A tourney this year and a 2A tourney next. There are a number of good young officials that would stay in it if they had an opportunity to work a state tournament.
