Let me add my two cents as well - be available, but be aware. In other words, if an opportunity is given to you, take advantage of it, if that's what you want to do. I'm not a supervisor, but I know they appreciate someone being available. But, if you keep saying no all the time because you have all these other games, they might stop asking. On the other hand, this could mean you might need to give up a high school or middle school date to take this JUCO date, which could then bring it's own set of problems. If you start giving back those dates, those schools and assigners might start thinking you're too good for them, and they will stop asking.

So, be aware of which assigners and schools understand you're moving up, and which ones are only concerned about their games. It just adds a little complexity to the issue of scheduling and "taking games".
I made a mistake and turned away 3 games and it's been eating at me for over a month. I want to be loyal to my first committment but also want to move up. It's a tough spot because you don't want to burn either bridge.
