Now for us in Illinois to work all the way to the State Finals, we have to work a championship at each level before getting state that season. We do not just get assigned a Sectional Final for example than then miss the Super-Sectional and work State.

Is that similar to other areas or can you work the State Finals without working other levels in that season? Also to advance to a Sectional for example, you have to had previous years of working Regional Finals to get to the Sectional level. Is that also similar or different?

In Missouri we have four levels; District, Sectional, Quarterfinal and State Finals. Only the district and State Finals have a championship game. The other two levels are single games.

There is no progression that is consistently followed. You do not have to work a District Championship game to work a sectional game, nor do you have to work a sectional game to work a quarterfinal game. The norm is an official usually works a sectional game or a quarterfinal game but not both. There are of course exceptions at times.
