Having coaches have any say in officials ratings is like asking for feedback from inmates on the judge from their trial.
Ideally I would like to see evaluators, ex officials or coaches, but who don't do either anymore do the evaluating. I would gladly pay and extra $20-$30 a year in fees so that these 5 or 6 can just evaluate officials. Their evaluations would weigh the heaviest on a ratings committee made up of officials that are elected and who would determine ratings.
Officials would require 3 evaluations in a year to qualify for advancement AND at least work 2 games with ratings committee members to see them in action. Truth is in any year a small percentage is up for advancement. This is very basic but a system like this I think would work best.
No coaches, no officials should evaluate in these cases. Higher officials can do an evaluation and submit it as part of an officials body of work for the year but this would have the least weight in the determination process.
