+1 I was waiting for somebody to say that.

I lurk here quite a bit. I don't post much because the best answer has usually been given by the time I see a post, but I'll add two cents here since I don't think anyone from Georgia has added anything to this topic.

Here, varsity crews are 3-person, and most assignments are b/g doubleheaders paying $46/game. Sub-varsity is 2-person, usually b/g doubleheader, at $37/game. Some sub-varsity tournaments (very few) use 3-person ($41/gm). In our 2-person crews, T chops the clock in the frontcourt. T is also tableside on FTs.

I'm with Multi-County, and it usually takes an official 3-4 years to work up to varsity, and in that time they will have had to go to camps, and been evaluated by several of our veteran officials. While it's not verbalized, anyone with decent eyes will notice the association prefers its varsity officials to look athletic, and definitely well-groomed. Rules knowledge and a professional attitude are a must.

I've worked varsity in the past, but for personal reasons I've worked sub-varsity for the past few years.
