You're refering to girls officials and boys officials, in HS, don't they play the games for the most part one right after the other? In Iowa we still have a girls state assn. and a boys assn. and the officials must belong to both, however, one pair of officials call both games.

Not in Illinois it is not. Boy's and Girl's games are usually on seperate nights. And with those certain conferences because of some litigation that required the boy's and girl's teams to play on the same nights, the same assignors usually do not assign both. And when they do assign both, they are not assigning the same official for both. There are usually "Boy's" Officials and "Girls" Officials. At least in the assignors eyes. Even in the AD's eyes much of the time that assign their own games.
And about belonging to both associations in Iowa. I did Baseball for two years in Iowa and I only belonged to the Boy's Assiciation. Now maybe it is different in basketball, but I was always told that you had to apply to both if you wanted to do both Girl's and Boy's games. But it was never a requirement. But maybe it was the association that I belonged to.
