There will always, to some extent, be such a network...but I don't think it is as tight in my area as it could be. I see evidence of it when the playoff assignments are posted (after they have ended). In our chapter, if an official is requested by the coaches they get the game as long as they have met the chapter's requirements to be playoff eligible. When the playoff participation is posted on the web site, the games where the officials were requested are marked. If you look at the other games, it tends to be the same officials over and over...a couple of new ones, but not many.
What makes that a little odd is I have heard the assignment secretary tell officials to make sure they keep their availabitly the same as submitted as much as possible so he can give them playoff games...then those officials get left out. Sure some may be becuase they were not available but I doubt that applies to all of them.
