State assignment limitations?

[LarryS]

As I understand it in our association, the chapter submits a list of names to "nominate" officials for regional and state assignment consideration (not sure about the number of names on each list). There are seperate list for boys regional, boys state, girls regional and girls state.

Our chapter chooses not to put an official on more than one list in a given year. They also choose to rotate the officials they nominate...and I think they will not put you on the list more than two years in a row.

Not sure who selects the officials or what info is submitted with the names. Since I have only been in the chapter a couple of years I am not eligible for playoffs (probably another couple of years).

Playoff assignments for the first 2 rounds are made by the assignment secretary, with input from the board. Schools can request certain officials. In the past, those request were filled regardless of the qualifications. This year, if an official does not meet all the requirements for a playoff assignment the coach is told they are unavailable...about time.
