I think this discussion has more or less defined "hustle" for competitive tournament games, tho. And, it would obviously be something less than a Tues/Fri night boys big class varsity game.

No matter how you try to sugar coat it, it is still just a little kids game that is paying about half (or less) of the normal rate.

Yes, you're off.
Your biggest type of complaints in the early part of the thread seemed to be not switching and not coming to mid-court to report. Yet, the assignor's 4 items don't include anything about that. Not switching has nothing to do with being in position to make calls.

While there are a few that probably don't hustle to be in position, most offiicals I know do hustle while the ball is live and cut the corners in the dead ball mechanics....the stuff that has basically no effect 99% of the time.
