In Indiana we get our own games at all levels. We contact the schools or they contact us.

There are a few schools who have hired assigners themselves and then it can become a matter of experience, being in the right place at the right, or who you know. However, none of the assigners have any influence over who gets assigned to the state tournaments.

Getting a partner will help get games at the lower levels. Don't necessarily settle on one, but if there are three or four of you want to work together and move up that is what I would suggest. It is always nice to have others you work with in case an emergency comes up and you need to get someone to take your place. Also, AD's prefer to have two guys who know each other, although it isn't necessary. When one phone call or email fills a game that is a good feeling to the AD!

When schools start up in a few weeks, go introduce yourself to some AD's in your area and tell them that you are starting out, tell them what you've done, and go from there. Ask them if they prefer phone calls or emails to communicate and ask them when they normally do there schduling (some do it in the fall, during the seasons, or after the season). Follow up at the appropriate time. I'm guessing you will be able to work as much JH/Fr/JV as you want.
