Officiating a Team You Formerly Coached

[BillyMac]

I block out my hometown high school. My kids went there, played sports there, and I used to teach science in town before I retired, and became a chemist. I still have 69 other high schools to keep me busy. No big deal.

I have done games for both high Schools I attended. The first one when I was a sophomore in college at the HS I graduated. JVB & VG. First game was a buzzer beater won by the home team.

Locally, I refused to do games for my stepson's team, of course. But earlier this week I did a JV game between the HS I went to and the HS in the town where I now live. On the court 60 milies from here. Nobody could rightly accuse me of being a homer. I knew lots of people on both sides of the gym.

Next month I have the VG game between both schools here.

I would probably take other games for a season or two, though, in answer to your question.
