When is it too late to turnback a game ???????

[BktBallRef]

Since 1988...

I have NEVER turned a game back in.

I have NEVER refused an assignment.

I have NEVER refused a game as a fill-in.

I had to do two of those for yesterday when one of my assignors did not realize he had me scheduled for two games at two different levels.

Peace

it is circumstantial and depends upon
your relationship with the assignors
whether you are climbing the ladder (your status)
how many times you've helped the assignors in the past
etc etc etc
if your area has extra officials the turned back game can be filled easily
if you know the assignor will have trouble covering, don't accept

I've probably turned back an average of 1 game per season.

I refused 6 just this year. I sent my D3 assignor my D2 dates and he gave me games on them anyway. I always refuse HS or D3 scrimmages if they're more than a half-hour away.

I think I'm actually with you on this one.
