Assignments

[refnrev]

Terrapins Fan,
Are all of your games assigned or do you contract independenlty with some schools? We contract independently around here. Last year, being new to the area, I agreed to a lot of lower level (7/8 - JV) games for this year early last season. That's dropped the number of V games I'll do this year, but that just means I'll tell the ADs that I'm available for V games and sign up for some of them first. The fact that I'm doing almost exclusively JV games this season doesn't mean I'm less of an official. It's just the way the schedule worked out this year. I also know that when I do a good job as a JV ref they're going to give me V games when openings come up this year and for next season. I'd try not to take it too personally.
