In Ohio, class 2 permits (up to & incl 10th grade) requires that you take 25 hours of instruction and pass the rules exam and mechanics exam with at least 75's. but, it's open book so you can probably guess that after 25 hrs of review, most pass. At the end of the second year you can take the varsity test to get your class 1 permit which I am told is closed book.
Upon passing the class 2, I was given a list of assignors...I was told of this "shortage" out there and that I would probably get called more than I wanted.
Based on that, I sent my availability in to 3 guys in my part of town plus the guys I worked for last year. Bottom line: the guys I worked for last year call me. The guys I sent avail into havent. One thing I have learned....Its polotical. I had a well known assignor tell me "sure, I'll use you every week...I'll give you a whole season's schedule right to my face....but that guy doesn't return calls....when I finally got thru...more lip service. "sure, I'll work you in" etc.
I guess I shouldnt complain....I have 32 games scheduled between now and Jan 13th. Mostly 5th - 8th. My goal is to get at least some frosh or JV experience this year to help prep me towards being eligible to work Varsity the 03 / 04 season.
Patience Right?
