Juulie - as everyone who follows this board probably knows by now, you and I have done games together. I have only two brief comments regarding your post.

First, you haven't been "around the block" very much and I don't believe most of the coaches have seen you work before and/or know you and the fact that you call a good game.

Second, as I am sure you are aware, varsity boys coaches are quick to try to "work" a female official. Many of them are of the "old boy" network and it will just take a while until you are accepted.

We all had to go through an "introductory" period, especially when we stepped up to varsity, and I believe it takes even longer for a female to get accepted by male varsity coaches. And yes, I admit this is a broad generalization (no pun intended).
