I absolutely 100% agree with these two posts. Call the JV assignor and be COMPLETELY HONEST with him/her. Believe me, assignors talk to each other. They will find out if you try to be sneaky or give a false reason for turning back the lower level game.

Josh, from Iowa, gave you one side of the coin. In his area, it is strongly frowned on to turn back a game for a higher level game. In my area of Massachusetts, it is pretty much a given with all my assignors that I am allowed to turn back any game for a higher level game with no repercussions. This is true from middle school to college.

Either way, be honest about it. If the JV guy is hard-nosed about it, then you'll know that for next season and you can honestly tell the Varsity assignor that you've taken a game from Mr. X that you can't get out of. I hope for your sake that the JV guy is reasonable. Good luck.
