The association can invite or "unvite" whom it pleases, but if that means a person can't get games from the attached assignor, you're right.

The OSAA requires membership in an association to insure training and knowledge, etc., in order to work games. The assignors are generally tied to the association.

Here's a link to the OAOA, a statewide assn. that has taken over a lot of what the OSAA used to do concerning its officials. This is on top of the locals. http://www.oreofficials.org/

How many states require a background check to get a license?
IL, FL yes.
WI no.
