Postgame Question

OK, this may be a bit off the wall, but two unrelated incidents I was around (one HS, one JC) last week got me to thinking about this (especially as it pertains to JuCo games). Two situations:

A) HS Var game ends at 9:20pm Friday. After finishing breaking down table/chairs etc...I go to lock the locker room at 10:15pm and the two officials are still in there. They let me know they were almost done, and emerged at 10:30pm.

B) Womens JC game last Wednesday ends around 8:50pm. As part of a long complaint by the crew that worked this game against the AD, they stated that they felt "rushed through their postgame shower and conversation time" (actual words in the complaint) and told to "hustle up because the facility is closing" at 10:15pm.

Is there a generally considered reasonable amount of time for officials to use the facilities after a game is over? I've been part of game management at the HS level for 10 years now, and I suppose my "tolerance" for how long it takes when it's my night to be in charge of these things at HS is directly related to what night it is and what I plan to do once I leave (in this situation A, I was just late to the post-game party ). Are there any areas where there is a written mandate or agreement between associations and schools/sanctioning bodies for how long officials are to be allowed to use the facilities in HS? Or is it pretty much common sense?

As it pertains to situation B, I'm guessing that for college games, there might be some more structure to the rules regarding facitilites. I'm basically just curious since I'm only a scorekeeper/clock operator/PA guy there.

Thanks for your responses
