You're a men's official, huh???

Recently worked a mens' NAIA DII game with a vet in our associating and he asked if I was still working girls' game....I said yeah, just had one last night.

He proceeded to provide his $.02 on the fact that you can't do girls' and higher level boys'/men's games and not eventually have it come and bite you in the rear.....He said that the different in the games will leave you inconsistent from night-to-night.....He also said you take the risk of being labelled a women's/girls' official if you continue to do these games.....Are any of you running into the problem of being "labelled" girls/boys officials. Have worked two boys state tournaments already and was informed I'll be doing a girls tournament this season and that made me recall his "labelling" comment. I probably worked 20 girls dates this year compared to 40 boys/mens...

I frankly throw the BS flag on this.....Pre-game well, be patient before you put air in the whistle and know the game and you'll be fine IMHO.

Any comments.....
