The next step in my schedule seems to be about 50% of my games will be Varsity.The frosh/JV games have really SLOWED down for me and its kinda cool. Some of the VArsity games are still moving pretty fast for me, but I am holding my own.
I don't want to end up being a half-a$$ Varsity ref. There are things that I need to continue working on and I believe I can better work on them at the lower levels.
For example my big 3 things to work on include
1. Adv/Dis - letting incidential contact go,especially as Trail. Still getting comfortable with the "late" whistle
2. Game awareness-things like AP,shot clock awareness, things of that sort
3. Working with the coaches-I am comfortable with rewarding coaches for their bad behavior. I give T's. I am also pretty comfortable with working with them also. I just think I need a little more work in talking them off the ledge,also just communicating with them in general.
SO is it okay to tell my assignor I like my schedule how it is or would that be considered a little strange ?

I think it would be worse for you to tell your assignor this than to try to improve while working the schedule you are given, but others may disagree.
Sometimes you get one shot at the brass ring and if you pass it by, the carousel stops before it comes around again. It may be too soon and it may not be the right timing for you, but it's possible the assignor knows this and needs you. Or maybe he/she sees something in you that you don't see -- perhaps you are ready.
