I think here in West Virginia, we have not felt the shortage of officials as much because some schools have merged with other schools to form larger schools. I think all of the closings have been completed for a while, and we well be short here. In our state clinic last year (WVSSAC) ask coaches and officials alike to try to interest senior players to think about officiating so we did not need to start having Saturday games to have enough officials to cover. It takes three years for a new official to be able to work a varcity game unless they just do not have anyone else, then you can use a second year official if both coaches agree.
