I told you...my state.
There is no such thing as a state license here. We do not work for associations. We work for independent assignors. They may use anyone they want...who they deem qualified. And they can define "qualified" any way they want. It usually means you are good; sometimes it means only that you can show up for the assignment.
The question was whether you needed to be "licensed" or "registered" with your state association to work....not whether you needed to be competent or qualified. I know several college officials who sometimes work high school varsity games. They belong to no high school association and are not registered or licensed (since the only requirement for registration is if you work state tournament games.) I know officials from a neighboring state who work a lot of games (including varsity). I know officials who have "retired" to Florida for most of the winter, but who work games through Christmas. None of them are "licensed" or "registered" here. They all are good officials, though.
