Lightbulb Maybe not good for officials.

The Macker is mainly a Midwestern thing as far as I know. They had a couple about an hour from where I grew up. One in Quincy and the other in Peoria, Illinois. It is a 3 on 3 tournament that sometimes big players play in. All levels from JH to Pro players can join with both Boys and Girls tournaments and levels. Great tournmament to watch, not the greatest to officiate thought. I would not recommended it unless you wanted to just make money. You sit in the same position and call fouls. Not very similar to normal mechanics or rules. So you really will not gain anything other than being an official and making calls and not having good position. Also it is Men's league type of competition with sometimes big money at stake. Might not be the most fun to do.

Peace
