So did you work the state finals last year? Bob is right - out here in Nevada, working the state tournament means the games between the final four teams in every class.

No, I did not work the state finals. The question was state tournament which is different in Illinois.

Bob is always right!

OK, Nevada said state tournament and after reading Bob's post I asked about state finals so we are talking about the same thing.

I guess the only question that remains is how you are sending Nevada his money - credit card, paypal, check or money order?

I'll send him his money after I receive mine. I work the state tournament, that was the question asked. Small, untraceable bills please. And since he was refering to the Illinois State tournament, I'm going to say I win!

Curious, how many officials in Nevada( the state, not the poster)?

I'm glad that IL agrees. Per the NFHS, the rule for the home team to wear white does not apply to non-varsity games. They wrote that in the comments section the year that the rule change took effect. It appears that our friend is not aware of this.

Yes, I meant the final weekend, which is what we call the State Tournament. In NV, this is the last location where games are played and as tomegun writes includes only four teams in each gender and classification.
The other post-season games obviously feed into determining a State Champion, but we call them Regionals. I believe that other states have names such as Sectionals and Super-Sectionals.

There are about 150 basketball officials in my area. There are close to 350 where tomegun is. There is another small association on the eastern side of the state with maybe 35 officials.

I was under the impression that "state tournament" referred to whatever games take place in the central location; however many rounds that entailed. In Iowa, I believe it is the final 8 teams for each class and lasts a week for the girls and a week for the boys. I still haven't figure CO out, but I think it's close to that.

NV used to have eight teams at the final location, but cut back to four a few years ago to save money.
There is a push every year to return to eight, but it hasn't happened.
