The thing that gets me most when officials are just there "collecting a check" is that we are the ones paying that check! The tourney this weekend was $350 for the entry (some for gym, some for officials, and some to the club), then we pay gas, food and lodging, plus drive 3.5 hours. We expect our kids to hustle and give it their best effort, and I expect the same of the officials. And I can say that every team on the floor that we saw, including the two-man teams, hustled up and down the floor and gave a solid effort. Makes it worth the drive!
