We only use 3-person at the AAAA level and 2-person at the AAA, AA, and A. It makes it difficult to switch from one to the other but we make it happen.
Personally I find that the AAA with 2 people brings out the greatest amount of concentration and work, though these AAA schools play such a high level of ball that soon 2-person will not be enough.
I also feel that people learn the best by officiating 2-person for 3-5 years until you learn the rules and positioning, then move up to 3-person.
Of course the cream of the officials will rise to the top and not take that long. But in the long run, nothing beats experience.
