In my 1st year on the HS school level, I was assigned a game with a 30 yr veteran partner, at a school that was known to be tough on officials, well in that 1st game, I was forced to "T" both the home girls and boys coaches, I mean they left me know choices, either "T" them or I would have lost respect. Anyway, that was the only 2 "T's" I had to call the entire year on coaches, but to make a long story short, My assigning supervisor, gave me their 1st round distric game, and every thing went great. This year I have worked them 3 or 4 times with no problems. My supervisor was right to give me their games, because if you give it all you've got each night to work a good game, then you've done your job, and to not take their games, they would feel they have intimidated you, and believe me, at the coaches meetings and camps, etc... they would let the other coaches know you can be pushed around. My advice is work 'em all.

I don't know what kind of Association you come from, but how does a first year H.S. Referee get a District game? Heck, most 1st year officials I know can't even spell District!
