Dressing to go to a game

Just to clarify, the reason some of us do it differently for JH games is not because we think they don't matter. It's because the facilities simply are not provided.

Nah, thats not what I ment, I mean there is some in Ohio that have good changing rooms and people could change and don't, thats what I was meaning.

Something to go with this, I hate it when I show up at a JH game ready to go with my jacket on and the other official gets there and says to me "Others officials in this league don't wear or bring their jackets for this league so I don't bring mine".
I hate this if you wear it for a JV then wear it for a JH.

Maybe, but jh is level where you get a lot of officials who don't have jackets. I always brought mine just in case, but never thought it was a big deal either way.

This is something that I address when making the confirmation phone call to partner(s) the day before JH games. ETA, jacket, type of shirt (grey or stripes), shorts/pants, etc.

This is what I love about having access to partner information prior to the games. When I was working in Des Moines, we didn't know who our partner was until we got to the game.
