Buckeye:
I don't know how your state (Ohio?) works, but I can tell you that in sunny Florida it's hard to determine whose fanny to kiss.
First off, test grades come into the picture with mucho points toward your ranking. Next, compulsory as well as voluntary clinics help boost your total. Of course, the total number of varsity games helps, but then comes the kicker - SENIORITY. Guess who goes if your total is tied with Old Fred, who's been there before several times.
Read Tee's suggestions carefully before you discount them. Getting a recommendation from a High School coach sometimes involves being a "homer", which I hope you won't consider.
Become the best Umpire you can be, if those in control of the higher level assignments miss out on your talents, they will be the losers, not you.
