Scratched for no reason??
AD calls my commissioner, says scratch that guy from my game, don't know his name but he was the tall curly headed one. I heard him say that we don't play anybody.
Nobody on the court said a word to this coach before, during, or after the game. The contest was relatively smooth. Do I care? |

Scratches/markoffs have nothing to do with ability. It's all about personalties.
Being able to scratch an official after the assignment is given is bull$hit that wouldn't be allowed here. However, when push comes to shove, we are independent contractors and without a contract, they are under no obligation to use you.

Man, you are so right. This one just caught me totally off guard. I love it when they scratch so many officials that you wind up sending them JV officials for there big contests. You reap what you sow!!!!

I would not be upset about it. It is probably best you do not go back to that place anyway. If you are doing your job properly, you will be scratched more times in your career. And if someone going to scratch you for a reason that does not make sense, then that is to your benefit in the long run.

Your association should limit the number of markoffs a school can use. Sounds like your assignor may need to grow a pair.

As Rut said, it happens if you work long enough.
I had an AD mark me off 7 years ago. Know why? We had the toliet bowl game in a tourney. After the game, we go to the hospitality room to grab a soda. He comes in and tells us we're not allowed there. Mind you the sign says, "Coaches, VIPS, and Officials Only." I told him that was fine but he needed to tell the assignor so all officials would know. I also told him that officials had been there for the previous two days and no one else said a word. Got the markoff two weeks later. Get this, I still woek his school in football 2-4 times a season. Go figure. Presently marked off at two schools and proud of it.

Wow! The whole conference?
One of the two schools I'm scratched at is our second longest drive. Yeah me!
