Then you might not work at all.

I do know of many situations where boy's officials do not call the game the same as the "normal" Girl's officials do and the coaches get really upset. It is a different game to call a game where kids are playing above the rim and kind of physical, to a game where if a girl is touched in the post the coaches are livid because there is not a foul call. One of the reasons I do not call girl's games is because I get much more grief because I do not call the touch fouls that are expected on that side of the game.
I agree with you completely. I don't think it will be a good situation, but it's likely to happen.
If you agree, what makes you think that we are the only two that have this opinion? I am sure someone that matters (assignors, ADs, Principals or fans) are not going to like officials working both sides.

Peace
