tjones -

Do they actually DO a check, though? As I recall, I had to send in my license number and sign a form certifying that I had no felony background, but I don't know if they actually run a check on each official.

The Catholic schools in the area have become VERY particular about running bg checks and mandating that anybody who works with kids go through training regarding identifying various forms of child abuse. That's been applied to coaches, but not to officials (yet).
