I will report the results of this forum thread to the chair and assistent chair of our ratings committee. Thanks for your help.

This is obviously an area thing but we do not have any organizations called a "board." We have official's associations that are optional to belong to. The reality is a little more than half of the officials licensed in the state are not members of any organizations.
The state requires every association to rank the Top 15 Officials in our association for their playoff consideration. We do have a rating system but this is for the state, not for associations to use. This process varies greatly between organizations on how their lists are compiled. For the most part the executive boards come up with their own criteria and those rankings a largely based on past playoff experience. There is one list for Boys and another list for Girls. I only belong to one organization that has very specific criteria for getting on the list and that is a football organization. The rest of the criteria are up to the board to decide the order and who should and should not be on the list. That is why we elect officers to do those kinds of things in the first place.
