I don't follow you. We are a dual board. IAABO for boys and
NYSGBA for girls.
Thanks

We are independent contractors. If we work for anyone, it is the schools and the conferences, not the official's association. If the assignment chairperson thinks you are good enough to work for him, then they can hire you, no matter what membership that you hold. Because if the mission of the association is to "assign" games and something goes wrong on any game that is "assigned" by the association, they can sue the official and the association for any action that took place. So to avoid that "impression" of being an employee, they took that wording out of the constitutions. In reality, most officials get there games from many different sources, and being a member of an association does not help me personally and many other officials in getting assigned in a particular conference. I work for more than 5 assignors in my area, only one might be an active member in any of the associations I belong to.
