Do you really think that doing girls' will negatively affect the way you call a mens'/boys' game the next night....I just don't buy it....the only thing I could see is the rules differences and from FED to men's there is little difference.

In places that do not require you to work both games, you might have to deal with this on some level. I know if you decide to work girl's games where I live, it will eliminate you from other opportunities on the boy's side. I tried to work both men's and women's college basketball and it hurt me. So guys can talk all this PC crap about how this is not a factor, but the reality it is a huge factor. It is not about rules differences, it is about game differences. Girl's do not play above the rim, they do not play the same physically and they do not have the same skill sets That is one of the reasons being labeled a girl's officials for someone trying to work Men's and Boy's games can hurt you.
