2 or 3 man crews

[BillyClyde 68]

Which states use 2 and 3 man crews on their games in season? My state does all games in the post season 3-man but does not make schools do any during the regular season? Does this sound right?

[jdw3018]

Does it sound right? What does that mean? It certainly sounds as if that's what your state does, since you said so.

FWIW, my state does all 3-man, even sub-varsity unless we're running low on local officials for MS games...

Iowa does 3-person for all Varsity in the two largest classes. 3-person is used if the school wants to at the lower classes as well. Subvarsity games are done with two-person crews.

We use 3-man for varsity and 2-man for sub-varsity.

[Ignats75]

In the Cleveland, Ohio area, all Varsity games both Boys and Girls are 3-man.

There is talk that boys JV games will be going to three person.

Fees are $55-70 per game per official for Varsity.

In Georgia, we use 3 man for all varsity levels and 2 man for all others.

CO is pretty much all 3-whistle for varsity. CO Springs also does 3 for most JV. Freshman ball is 2. Pay is only slightly less (about $6 per official) for 3 than for 2.

Here we us 3 in boys and girls varsity. All sub-varsity we use 2.

In KS all six classes of tournament are 3 person games.

In larger areas and larger classes, we use 3 person for GV and BV contests. All lower level games are 2 person mechanics.

I know of no Class 5 or 6 school that uses 2 person anywhere in state. I know in western KS, the small schools still use 2 person crews for BV and GV games.

No matter the size, all KC, Topeka and Wichita schools use 3 person crews.

Our Georgia group attempts to assign 3-person for all levels (middle school through high school varsity). On our busiest dates, we may be forced to assign 2-person for some sub-varsity games (lack of available officials). Our officials understand that their 3-person pay for sub-varsity games will be 2-person crew pay divided by 3 officials. We have found that the training of officials is more efficient by starting people off with 3-person mechanics.

All varsity games in Georgia are 3-person.

Eastern Washington:

All Varsity and sub-Varsity HS boys 3-Whistle 1 game @ $48 plus travel per night (Unless we do a Frosh game prior to the Varsity game...$28 extra)


Middle School 2-Whistle. 2 games @ $40 per = $80

Damn there's a lot of Kansans on this board.

I'm in extreme SW Kansas (an hour south of Dodge City) and have never seen a two-whistle varsity game, so it must be up in the NW around Goodland and whatnot.

Far SouthEAST corner of Kansas, there is occasionally 2 whistle V here, it's school option in two conferences. Only one school that I know of opts for two person crews. All sub-V is 2.

[JRutledge]

Illinois uses 3 Person for all post season games Boy's and Girl's basketball.

I have heard rumors of some places using 2 Person still, but it is not very common. Every league or tournament I have worked is 3 Person for all varsity games.

There are even places that go 3 Person for lower level games. This is not common, but it has taken place.

General rule in Texas is 3-person for 3A, 4A, and 5A games (three largest classes which make up most cities), 2-person for smaller schools and almost all sub-varsity.
