I have a friend moving to Durham NH. Does anybody know the local official's association/board they should contact (Not the NHIAA but the local)? Thanks

It's New Hampshire. It's no big deal to assign 20 games, all within a 25 mile radius.

That's not too far from the truth. Most of the state is about 50 miles wide, with the widest part about 90 miles. And only about 180 miles long.

Snaq's crack about working in Vermont, however, is way off base. They'd go to MA or ME next.

That is correct. I live in a NH town that borders Massachusetts where I also ref games. In Mass--there are multiple assigners who assign games in their respective leagues/conferences.

How many schools are there?

I officiate in NH..there are about 100 HS..keeps Steve pretty busy...only real problem officiating here is if you live in Northern area it is a lot of travel. Most of my games are an hour to an hour and half away. Very often you do varsity double headers. Some real small schools ..one with only 50 kids in entire school..7th and 8th graders can play varsity.

Wow, I think the guys around here assign for between 20 and 30 schools. That seems like a hell of a task.

Our local board commissioner assigns for seventy-one high schools. With the exception of a few prep schools, most have both a boys and a girls program. He assigns varsity, junior varsity, and freshman games for these schools. He also assigns many, but not all, of the boys and girls middle school games that feed into these high school programs. For this he earned an income of approximately $27,000.00 for this past season. We have an assistant commissioner that assigns scrimmages, and AAU games. His income is approximately $2,000.00.

IAABO could send you to Connecticut, that is one heck of a drive.

That's a lot. Our guy does the G/B F, JV, Soph, and Varsity for those schools. I'll have to double check the count if I ever have access to the infformation at the same time I'm caring about it.
