two man chop?

[bob jenkins]

We convinced one conference that on one night the prelim games (it's the Soph game, here) across the entire conference would be three person. We put officials on the game who are nearly ready to move to Varsity on the games and assign the V officials to get to the games from the beginning to observe / provide feedback. The three officials split the two fees.

This gives the officials some game experience in three person when they get to Varsity and doesn't cost the schools any more, or put anyone at a disadvantage (since it's done at all schools on that night).

Great idea.
