True or False?
TRUE. No technical
NFHS 2.2 Art.3 The officials' jurisdiction, prior to the game, begins when they arrive on the floor. The officials arrival on the floor shall be at least 15 minutes before the scheduled starting time of the game.

Being as how 2.1 Art.1 tells us what the officials uniform shall be...if you and partner arrive (late) say 6:20 for a 6:30 and observe the same sitch
even though you arrive "on the floor" within the 15 min. jurisdiction...you're in street clothes, not your uniform, hence you have yet to take the floor as an official.
