I define registration with the state as paying whatever fees, taking whatever tests, etc.
Yes. It is possible and happens in states where there is no formal "licensing" or "registration" procedure.

I work in such a state. That does not mean anyone can walk off the street and officiate, since assignors are responsible to the schools for the folks they put on the court.

Now...are you talking high school? Or are you asking about AAU, travel, youth leagues?
