And, officials have to work them for points? Points toward what?

We have a points system that determines whether an official is a Class 1, 2, 3, or 4.

Do the officials actually look forward to working them? Or, do they see them as a hated necessity?

I thnik most officials look forward to them since it's an opportunity to get on the filed.

Also, what parts of the game does the scrimmage consist of? Clock? kicking game? Shortened periods? What levels count for points?
|
No, clock, kicking game, chains, periods, or points. Usually one team will run 10 plays, then the other team will run 10 plays. They'll do this for about an hour or so, then they'll run regular downs with the officials having a vague idea of when a 1st down is achieved.

In Illinois, schools scrimmage, but only amongst themselves. Usually, it is centered around Fall Sports Night, where the teams do their practicing and families can come out and watch. Then, usually, the booster club has a cook out afterward. Officials will receive a small stipend, but generally not a full fee. These are controlled scrimmages, with no kicking game, no clock - just the coaches agenda for what he wants to see. This is generally XX plays with number one offnse, XX plays with Number one defense and so on.

Sounds similiar. You just need to add another team.
