We are very fortunate around here to be able to work 3-person crews for all levels of H.S. ball. We even do 3-person crews for some M.S. games...but only pay for 2 officials. (The third person rotates in from a group of newer officials that show up and want to learn the mechanics of 3-person)
this is strickly voluntary for the newer officials
I work with a guy that officiates in Oregon. He tells me they do 2-person all year long...and then when the playoffs come, they go to 3-person.
I would think that would be tough to do. Especially since I believe he even said it was 3-person ONLY for the State Playoffs.
Maybe Camron, or other Oregon officials, can shed some light on this?
