If so, what "code" do you enter on line B of Schedule C? That code is supposed to categorize your type of business, and there's about 3 pages of codes to choose from in the instruction booklet. But I can't find anything that I'd consider close to "sports official". Do you just use "999999" (unable to classify)? Or is there an appropriate code there and I'm not seeing it?

Any help?
If I remember correctly, we talked about this a couple of years ago, and most people who read this board used 713900 "Other amusement adn recreation services, (including golf courses, skiing facilities, marinas, fitness centers, bowling centers, skating rinks, miniature golf courses)" or 711210 "Spectator sports (including professional sports clubs & racetrack operations)".

I use 711210. fwiw.
