Was 3Man Officiating Crews Designed To Keep Older Out Of Shape Officials Around?

Let me add my 2 cents worth.
After doing 3-person( have to be PC) for the past 10 years in HS I never want to do 2-man again. The court coverage is so much better and off-the-ball action that was never called is the responsibility of at least 1 official. Cleans the game up real quick when done correctly.
As for older officials sticking around longer, I believe so. But use their knowledge and experience as a learning tool.
One thing I was told "While we get older every year, the players remain the same age and get quicker and stronger each year."

Don't you mean 2-person?!?
