Gee...is that AD an official as well? Sure is interested in young officials.
Rather than implement a full-on rating or evaluation system for coaches, who may not be the most objective or qualified, you might suggest a ranking sheet for each school.
Have each coach to rank their top officials (we use 10), as well as to list any officials they absolutely do not want to see (ding list).
There are no criteria or guidelines, and the process is entirely subjective, but it gives coaches an opporutnity to give feedback and helps assignors become aware of preferences.
Many of our coaches don't care and don't even respond.
