LMAO!! That's why it was such a bizarre situation! We were just looking at each other like, "Is this happening?" I dont know... maybe it was because it was "just" a 9th grade game. Whatever... I am over it now. I stumbled across this message board while searching the Michigan High School Athletic Association websites regarding officiating rules, and thought I'd post to see what you all thought.

And I just have to laugh at the notion that you are all assuming I have problems with women in authority. I AM a woman in authority! I could care less if the refs were women or men. (We have several women refs in our league.) Again, it was the unregistered, uninsured, under-aged part that struck a cord with me.

Thanks everyone.

Once again, there are some that would say that women tend to have more problems with other women than they do with men. Just because you are in an authority position does not take away that you "could" have such an issue. Just by the fact that you seemed to question her qualifications says something to me.

Peace

I just want to add something here. "Unregistered" does not mean untrained, necessarily.
How did you find the officiating compared to other games you've seen?

We won the game, LOL!
The officiating was as good (or as bad, depending on how you look at it) as any other game we've had.

I need to stop checking this thread!! This was the last time, I swear, LOL. THANKS!

And the five or so seperate references to the "female" referees.
