Sorry if I didn't make myself clear. Our state interscholastic sports governing body (CIAC) didn't come out with these guidelines, rather, our state IAABO board, did. The CIAC did contract with officials to pay 150% of a game fee for a one person game.
99% of one person games, here in my little corner of the Constitution State, are 3:30 p.m. middle school games, or 4:00 p.m. high school freshman games. We simply don't have enough officials available for these afternoon starting times to cover the forty-five towns, many with multiple schools, in our geographic area. We have about 300 officials on our local board, but almost all of us have day jobs.
