I was going to say the same thing. The official in question may not have been certified but hopefully he's a NASO member so he at least has some coverage.
My community organization in NYC always advised us not to work rogue leagues. They said they were aware they couldn't stop us because we were independent contractors but the safety risks were always large, especially when I started with them in the early 90s.
Case in point, this from 1988: Scorecard - 09.12.88 - SI Vault
