Do you know which is the closest to the truth? Do you know how it was proposed to the schools? Was it just, "do you want a third official for varsity games for the same fee?" or was it along the lines of "1 crew of 3 officials works JV/V double-header for just an overall small increase in fee?"
If the state is so in control of fees and 2 or 3 man, why aren't they more proactive in getting 3 officials for at least varsity games?
If the school is allowed to use non-licensed officials for F/S, why do they get paid the same for JV?
Sorry for a million questions, and maybe this forum isn't the best place to continue this discussion. If you want you can PM me or just reply here, or let me know and I can track you down through email.
NP will the questions. You're welcome to email me...all my contact info is on the PBOA roster. I'll just email you my reply to this.
