In NC, we also have a points system. Fortunately, coaches have no input in it. I just don't see most coaches being objective or knowledgeable enough about officiating, to participate in a rating system for officials. They're similiar to fans, passionate about their team and therefore, always biased to some extent. Many would base their input on whether they liked you or not, a call you might have made, or some other qwerky reason to score you poorly. I just don't see the advantages of it.

We receive 0-20 points based on our exam score, closed book NF Part 2. To be eligible for playoffs, you must make at least 80 and have a total point rating of at least 80.

We receive up to 18 points for attending local clinics, 15 points for attending the All Officials local meeting, and 15 points for attending the state rules clinic. The state clininc must also be attended to work playoffs.

We receive up to 17 points for working scrimmages. Seniority counts very little as we receive 1 point for each year of varsity experience, maximum of 5 points. 5 points for 1 to 6 varsity games worked the previous season, 10 points for 6 games or more.
