Mike, You can answer your own question by asking yourself "What do I want out of officiating"? (1) If you are in it for the $$, work every game you can get. Get them overwith as quickly as possible. (2) If you are in it for the love of the game, do as many gaems as you want. Enjoy!! (3) If you want to get better, use the games as practice. Have a short pre-game with your partner. He/she may want the practice also. REC leagues are just like any other game----the game doesn't continue until we are ready. Use proper mechanics as much as possible.
FYI. Started officiating in 1973. Have done HS varsity in 7 different states. Been in NC since 1987 and assigners know that I will do games 12 months a year. I help out whenver I can. (Love this game!!) This past weekend I had HS conference playoff Friday night, womens DII game Saturday afternoon, and a 10 yr old AAU tournament Sunday afternoon.
