Same here. Any communication between officials, and the schools we service, other than a simple game confirmation email, or a simple email inquiry about a late payment, must go through our local board secretary, or our local board assignment commissioner.
I got in trouble with this a few years ago. A rookie coach asked me after the game how his kids did in terms of sportsmanship, since it was one of his goals that season. I told him that they were great. He asked me to send his athletic director an email about it, which I stupidly did. My board secretary, and assignment commissioner, weren't too happy when they found out about it. Fool me once. Shame on you. Fool me twice. Shame on me. Man. I'll never make that mistake again.
