Same for us

Billy's situation sounds just like ours; except we have 9 high schools and the pacific ocean (well within a couple of hours).

Football and basketball both are small associations where we struggle to get enough officials when most of the teams play at home. All of the assigning is reviewed by the board and if you put some effort into it you can move up to varsity fairly quickly.

It probably helps that we are in a lesser populated area where the big town is between 50K and 60K people. I'm not sure how it works in Seattle but I do know that I don't hear rumblings of political strife and the officials that have moved into our area from the big city haven't said much either.

I really feel for you guys that have struggles off the court.
