I average between 180 and 200 games per year. That doesn't include croquet. Oh yeah, I'm also 60.

I know a guy who does at least 400 each year. Of course, they're all in his driveway.

From the early 90's (and Billy I mean 1990' not 1890's, ) until the the early 00's (2000's that is not 1900's Billy, ), between CYO, Jr. H.S., H.S. (FR, JV, VAR), college (jr., JV, and VAR), spring tournaments (AAU and YBOA), summer leagues, and AAU and YBOA (national tournaments) I would officiate anywhere from 400 to 450 games. I am now 57.

I have cut that down to about 150 games a year now, because Mark, Jr. started H.S. in 2004 and his now a FR in college and Andy is now a SO in H.S. I wanted to watch them play baseball in the summer and watch them swim during the fall and winter. I think that once Andy graduates from H.S. Also I have not taken games so that I could watch MTD, Jr. officiate and I have umpired more baseball and fastpitch in the summer the last few years and cut way back on my summer basketball schedule because of Mark and Andy's baseball games. But, I intend to pick up the pace of my schedule again after Andy graduates from H.S.

I've got 32 college games. I don't have my full high school schedule for Feb yet, but I usually end up with about 20-25 games. That's all for regular season, I'll get a couple more assignments for playoffs, but not a whole lot more.

More than Freddy and less than Mark -- 4th grade through varsity HS. I still can't play in 50 and older basketball or soccer leagues. I, too, get limited since I have a high school son (who I officiate with when he has time) and a jr. high school son. We officiate soccer together (when they are not playing and I am not playing or coaching).

Absolutely no more than one at a time.

I'm not good enough to do more than that.

I'm still fairly new (3rd yr of HS ball) so I'm still developing relationships and schedules. My schedule is much better this yr and I am pleased with how I am being developed and handled by my Association. They are not rushing me and giving me anything I can't handle, but are challenging me more and more. Last yr I did 130 HS and Rec games - and I loved almost everyone of em!
