In Illnois, each coach and fellow official can rate an official based on observation. Additionally, each coach, conference assignor, and officials association submits a Top 15 list to the state office. Using all of that info., the IHSA uses a mathematical formula to rank every official in the state (1 to whatever). The higher you are ranked, the more rounds of play you are assigned to. The initial rounds are geographically assigned (meaning you are working at Regional sites in your immediate area).

FYI - in 04-05:
+ 69% of coaches submitted ratings for games played.
+ Losing coaches rated (on a scale of 1 to 5 - 1 being outstanding) game officials 2.68 VS. winning coaches 2.5 (only .18 difference - not a significant difference).
+ Only 2.96% of coaches felt a "call or no call" decided a game.

If interested, I can forward a PowerPoint presentation that the IHSA put together that explains, in detail, the process. Shoot me an email: [email protected] and I'll send it to you.
