In my "nape of the neck" it's tough to get Varsity games. Generally speaking unless you're Certified you will get very few. The trick is to be a Certified Official. This, however is a five year process (if I'm not mistaken) so it wouldn't be unreasonable to figure 5-7 years before you got a significant number of Varsity contests in my area. However, if your buddies with the assignors (whether this is fair or unfair it's a fact of life) the process is accelerated. As I understand it to do college games you need to attend the assignors camps to get exposure. I know of one person who did hardly any high school and made the jump in an extremely short period of time. However, he's an extremely talented and gifted official.
