Pre Game Board

I am ordering a pre game board.. There is two different ones. There is a Men's and a Women's. Which one is just basic Highschool? Thanks for the help.

Generally speaking, neither. The boards that I've seen are setup for NCAA mechanics.

The only board I've seen for basic high school coverage comes from The officials choice.

They only have one so I am guessing that that is it. Mens-Version Pre Game Board

In high school the mechanics do not differ between the boys and girls game, in college they do. The board from the officials choice is a very good board for high school coverages and I think the 3 man side, doubles for NCAA mens mechanics.

I was just going to get that until I saw it costs more to ship it than the thing does itself. I ain't paying $10.88 for shipping unless Shania Twain brings it here personally in under an hour.

I bought mine when I bought a pair of the shoes, and they didn't charge any extra shipping for the board, they just put it inside the shoe box. The shoes are worth it, but I'm not about to start a patent V normal leather arguement.

I also haven't had a problem dealing with them. Of course it took a few weeks to get my purchases (crossing the border with the cheap shipping takes time

) but they arrived before the start of my season with everything the order contained.

But a lesson I've learnt not from any officiating store but just in general, if the item is on backorder, or not in stock, wait for it to be in stock before purchasing said item. It saves a ton of time and trouble. Like all the people who put in pre-orders for the patent leather shoes must've been pissed with the arrival date getting moved back constantly. But if you waited for them to be instock, then you would've have that problem. Just my $0.02

It was ok service it is just that whoever was on the phone was so dang rude. He told me my order should be in within 6-8 days. Has anyone ever had them be rude to you?

Now, I'm thinking of using some of my Christmas money to invest in a new pair of patent leather shoes, my converse whistles are almost 2 seasons old. Anyone who's purchased the new OC patent leather shoe, how does it compare to the old converse patent leather shoe??

A guy in our association puts orders down there every so often, I think next time, I'm gonna put in a request for the shoes. I think 2 seasons is streching it for one pair of shoes.

Make sure when you order your pair of shoes to get their 1.
