I'm curious on what everyone suggests as training for officiating middle school/freshman ball?
I just tried to join a local association to work these games but can't because I'm over the weight maxiumum for their officials.
Thanks for the help

Is it legal to have this type of provision? I don't know I'm just asking. There are NFL lineman that would be over the weight maximum (I would guess) that would beat 99% of the officials down the court. You might not look good in stripes but what does weight have to do with it if you can get up and down the court?

Sure it is. It doesn't exclude any gender or race. It's a physical job and the hiring parties can have minimum physical requirements if they're properly documented. They can't just pull them out of a hat to keep a new applicant out if they've not already had the requirements.
