I got a Conference Final!
First time in almost 30 years I have been assigned to do a conference final.

AAA VB Finals on Monday night. I am so stoked.

I did one of the semi final games last night and it went really well. When I got home my assignor called me and told me he wanted me in the final.

Hoorah! Way cool. Congrats and good for you!!

Let us know how it goes.

PS - on a kinda sad, side note....if I eventually get good enough, and fortunate like you, I'll be 73 yrs old and in 2034 I'll make it to the big time! At least I've got something to strive for!

Of course, as others have said - Congratulations and enjoy it!

Thanks all for the Congrats.

Of Course I posted this on here as a way to let those people who have provided many, many posts of valuable information and advice, know.

It is my way of saying thanks for all your time. I would like to say it was all because of you! BUT alas it was me running the floor and spending all that time learning FIBA rules....

I have learned that there is a difference in philosophy between FIBA and Federation - both in mechanics and game calling. If there is more FIBA talk on here, I'm all for it!
