We got an email this week from our association secretary to have clothes on when working with female officials, AD's, and team personal, not quite sure who around here is doing this but it makes you wonder...


The JV thing is nice but doesnt quite address the question our association sent them. Which is how does this count for player's quarter limit and if "overtime" in this case is counted as an extension of the last quarter or counts as another quarter against the player's limit.

The Facebook thing is just common sense. If you are officiating high school basketball/soccer/volleyball, it does not look good when your list of facebook friends includes the good looking point guard (or ugly point guard for that matter) for one of the two teams you are officiating next week. Don't think for a minute that someone for the OTHER TEAM won't discover that little fun fact some how. Never mind the "problems" created by interacting with a minor online. They are just reminding us to be careful.

While we do not typically have the JV problem listed, overtime is always considered to be an extension of the final quarter -- the overtime will only be three minutes in length. Therefore, it is not an official quarter contributing to the 5-quarter per day maximum permitted by the OHSAA.

Oh, that clarifies it. :eek:

Never said it was in the back of the book. Never had a supervisor or observer tell me to stop either. :D

Agreed on the facebook; but it's apparent that common sense doesn't always prevail. I can't imagine any reason to send a friend request to any local player, "particularly of the opposite gender." The last thing I need is more teenagers clogging my FB feed.

You play 6 minute quarters in JV?

Girls usually play 6 minutes and boys play 7 in this area for JV.

We also do a weird 6 minute 1st and 3rd and 7 minute 2nd and 4th combo in NW Ohio for sub-varsity.

I used 3:00 for the one OT I've had so far.

Not sure whether you were referring to me, but I do seem to recollect that the state's rationale for using the PC signal for both PC and TC fouls is that it helps everyone understand that we won't be shooting free throws.

Hey, don't roll your eyes at me, buster, it's not my rationale.

It is not the officials who send the initial invite, it is frequently players. I have two high school-aged sons and have coached many of their friends in basketball, soccer, baseball or volleyball over the years. Since I still play soccer and a little basketball, the players can relate to me better than many of the other parents. Hence, I will get the occasional friend request FROM a player (always been a friend of one of my sons). We just have to be VERY careful in this area.

The Catholic League and some others play 6-minute quarters FR and JV while many other leagues play 7-minute quarters.

3 minutes for the 1st OT. 3:30 for the 2nd. 3 minutes for the 3rd. etc.

Based on the directive quoted, the problem is officials making the invites. At least that's how I read it. Your situation is different; my kids are younger (oldest is still in elementary) so I don't have this issue. I'm leary enough about being friends with the young adults who were kids when we moved away from our church 5 years ago.

But I can understand if my kids' friends send requests in a few years.

OTOH, I've already experienced some issues with younger airmen in my unit. There are just some things an NCO doesn't need to know.

You'd think there would be things an airman wouldn't want his NCO to know.

Ohio officials have to be told this ????

I am not a friend on my better half's Facebook Page nor am I a friend on our sons' Facebook Pages. Why? I do not have a Facebook Page. LOL
