Well Tuesday and Friday are the typical Boys Basketball nights here. There are some exceptions as the other nights might be used as the occasional non-conference game, but when you think about it, schools only play around 18-20 games (outside of regular season tournament games).

All the other nights are typical girls nights with the occasional Friday night game.

And I do feel that some of this is the consideration is for the officials or quality officiating to be available. But the reality is that many officials here do not work both genders that much. For example I usually do not do a single girls game unless asked to do someone a favor and I am not alone there. I know many coaches on the boys side do not want to see "girl's officials" on their games typically and I think it does effect some basic scheduling of these games. I know that some conferences have gone to boys games on like a Wednesday or Monday to get more exposure and probably to get some better officials that would be working in other conferences.
