BigGref...my first question is where are you in an association at in Indiana? I have worked out of the Western Association for the past 4 years. Indiana is unlike any other state I have been around (2 in Virginia and 3 in Georgia). In Indiana, AD's get officials for all of thier games. The local association has little if nothing to do with getting you games. Our Scheduling Chairman is affectionately know as the "email boy." All he really does is forward information about open games to the membership.

I would tell you to set your sites on working up to JV in Indiana. AD's usually only schedule these games one year in advance. Meaning that they are working on next year now. Varsity games are set 2 or 3 years in advance. My football crew already has 2 dates for 2008. That is just the way it is done here.

Good luck with your career. If I can be of any assistance, please feel free to contact me.
