That's obnoxious, Rut. We call both boys and girls where I'm from. The girls' games are not given to "lesser" officials.

Rich, we do both boys and girls games here as well. But the only reason is that it was strongly suggested to the boys officials that we would do both, or our boys schedules would suffer.
You mention "where I'm from", and I think that's a big caveat. Around here, girls ball is pretty poor. In parts of PA, from what I understand, girls ball is outstanding. But "where I'm from", I concur with Jeff. Almost nobody who aspires to officiating high-level basketball wants to work girls games. Two average JV boys officials could handle most of the girls varsity games around here.
