And I can tell you schools in Illinois often are not being funded as the state says they are supposed to be (do not get me started) because the budget is not resolved. Those few extra hundred dollars makes a difference.

I'd like to see more younger officials offer to split 2 checks at the JV level. Those that want to become varsity officials need to work games 3-person and a camp or two in the summer just doesn't cut it.

However, this is why so many officials, even those that work varsity, are simply terrible at 3-person.
