However, the officials get notification of assignments by mail (like USPS mail, not e-mail). If there is a change, then the change is sent via mail. We have to accept each change by mailing a form back or faxing it in.

For one game, I got the assignment four times. Original assignment at school A at 4:30. Assignment 2 game switched to school B at 4:30. Assignment 3 game switched to school B middle school gym at 4:30 (I got assignment 2 and 3 in the mail the same day -- I was confused). Assignment 4 game switched back to school A at 10:30 AM. So I got 4 different notices in the mail for this one assignment.

Apparently next year, they are going to start assigning online. It's about time.

You aren't near Rte 11 are you?
