Big Time HS holiday tourneys

[LSams]

Most of the Holiday Tournaments in Florida -- and there are several that draw teams from a national level -- are sanctioned by FHSAA -- So FHSAA officials are used. Most of the time, the local association assigns these games -- but not always.

There was some conflict in my old association in Orlando several years ago, about guys (and gals) turning back games assigned by the association to work tournament games assigned by an individual working for a particular tournament. That individual was assigning officials from all around the state (all FHSAA officials, but most of the top level officials from around the state).

The next year, the games for that particular tournament were assigned by the local association. The year after that, I moved to Ohio and haven't gotten to officiate since then.
