That is not the problem as I see this situation will face. Will this company be able to have enough officials in an area to rely on this service? And it appears that you have to pay to join as an official as well. I doubt in my area for example that someone is going to pay to join this site and then hope a league in the area picks them up. They would get enough of those opportunities being a member of a local association I also doubt that the leagues would pay to get someone to cover their games with a smaller pool of officials than they would go to a local assignor or an official that would have a few hundred officials at his disposal through email. And this site will not be able to decipher as much who is good and who has experience to cover the games. I guess if you just want the game covered that would be OK, but that is not how many games are given out. Schools, leagues and assignors are concerned with quality as much as who can work the games.
