I have already had a scrimmage cancelled (not at the D1 level, obviously) because the school didn't want to pay for the officials.

I have paid and unpaid scrimmage...we need to realize that as professionals we need to get on the court before the season and if that means working one for free than that is what it takes. Don't get me wrong we should be getting paid something in a ideal world.

Give yourself a pat on the back. So do I. But some conferences have a rule that if they scrimmage an interscholastic opponent, they must use a regular paid crew. If they scrimmage intra-squad, then they can get CYO refs for free if they want. And so, rather than pay officials for that "regular" scrimmage, they go intra-squad and get whoever is local and will work for free.

In my neck of the woods, we are scheduled a scrimmage and we are allowed to bring in those HS Officials that are looking to move to NCAA Officiating. Usually, its a small group of them, maybe two or three.

That is how it is here. You know an official or are seen by a college official/assignor and liked then you are invited to attend. For this scrimmage we have 4 guys counting myself.

Is there a rulebook that pertains to Womens NCAA or is it a overall rulebook that contains both genders??

One rule book, but some specific rules apply only to Men or Women

The NCAA rule book is available as a free download and it has a pretty good rules differences chart in the back that covers the significant rules diffs not only between HS and NCAA, but also between NCAA-M and NCAA-W. I find it to be much more useful than the one in the back of the NFHS book.

For this scrimmage I would say the most important thing is to learn the NCAA-W coverage areas/mechanics and make sure you get those calls in your primary. Your crew chief will make sure everyone is applying all the rules correctly.
