I have a general comment to all of the situations listed. Just because you are primarily a "high school official" or primarily a "college official" should not make you eligible or ineligible for post season play. Being able to work the games that you are given (according to level ect) in that one can evaluate the play at that level is a much better indicator of an official's talent.

Just because one works a certain number of games would not ever qualify them as a good official. One has to be able to stand out and make calls that fit the game and level for that particular situation. I know people that were not working HS varsity games in his/her respective association, but worked small college ball.

In short, ability should win out over everything else. Being able to control the game and let the players decide the outcome is paramount.
