If you're out of shape, can't get up and down the court, and looking sloppy, you're probably not going to get much varsity anytime soon. I know, because those are my big problems. Of course having proper mechanics and knowledge of the rules certainly helps. My advice to you would be to find some camps in your area, attend them, work in front of your league commissioners and get evaluated, and that'll tell you what you need to work on to get a chance at varsity.

Thanks for the advice.
As far as the physical appearnce, that is something i havent had to deal with. I have been playing Varsity Football for the past 3 years. I have worked a lot with some officials that are higher up their within the association. I have been told that I have done a great job and they would love to work with me whenever they get the oppurtunity. So I have been told good things and I have received a Letter of Recomendation from our person who does our Scheduling.
