This is incorrect.
Why?

I think that it's correct for Georgia-up to this year,anyway.I think that Georgia is voting now as to whether they're gonna keep IAABO as their official State body.I know that there are other states in the East that also have IAABO as their recognized State body for basketball officiating too.
Virginia, VHSL, specifically states that IAABO membership is not required in the sate. Moreover, the test is mot a replacement for the NFHS/VHSL sanction test and one is NOT ALLOWED to wear an IAABO patch when one is wearing the VHSL patch.

This being said, I am a member for the insurance, the 3 in one book, and the good feeling I got when I passed the test. Those who donÂ’t know, it is a 50-question test that is more like the casebook than the NF test.
