I also disagree with JRut's blanket assesment of AAU or Middle School officials...in this area we have many State Playoff H.S. Varsity Officials doing a few of those games now and then.

When did AAU get into this conversation?

Seriously, do you guys actually read the things I say or do you just make it up as it goes along because you cannot find a statement that I make that fits?

I have never said Playoff officials do not work AAU ball. I work AAU ball from time to time.

In my area it would be much harder for varsity and college officials to work. I really do not understand why that is hard to believe. I know officiating might be the only thing you do, but I do not see how guys officiate a regular HS schedule with their kids and wives (or the rare husband) to take care of. I have friends whose wives go nuts that they work 3 games a week and all the weekends are tied up.
