It is expected of us by all three of the associations....
I work for and by the coaches. Plus it is good manners. I have called the AD or coach's cell when I got there from parking lot IF the parking lot was far from the game field AND I had worked there before (high school only).
College associations require us to be there one hour before game, dressed to impress (jacket and t-neck or tie and dress pants shoes. No sweats/jeans, ever) from JUCO/NAIA to D-1 and report to head coach/AD/game management personnel that we have arrived.
