Yep. Early sub-varsity level games can be a challenge at times and you have to do the best you can - I think everyone understands that.

I agree on the one hour minimum prior for varsity games. Tuesday I had a scheduled 5:45 varsity game & arrived at the gym at 4:15. The JV game was about 2 min into the 2nd quarter and there was only one official - his partner never showed up. I wound up working the 2nd half of the JV game on top of my scheduled varsity game.
