- - Some Interesting Statistics, and One Question (https://forum.officiating.com/basketball/7297-some-interesting-statistics-one-question.html)

I'm giving a talk on Feb 6, "Women in Sports Day" and got some statistics from NFHS. This first is all "licensed" basketball officials in a state:

See Camron's post below for more readable statistics.!!

Number No. of States

250 or fewer 2
251-500 12
501-750 2
751 -1000 8
1001-1250 3
1251-1500 5
1501-1750 1
1751-2000 5
2001-2500 3
2501-3000 0
3001-3500 1
3501-4000 3
4001-4500 2
4501-5000 2
8000 1

and here is percentage of officials in a state that are female:

0-3.9% 25
4-7.9% 15
8-11.9% 8
20-23.9% 2
24% - up 1

Okay, here's the question:

NFHS couldn't tell me which states fit where, in these numbers. Anyone out there know what the figures are for your state? I'm especially curious about the one state with 8000 officials, probably CA or TX, or perhaps NY. Can anyone tell me definitely? Also which one state has more than 25% female basketball officials. I doubt it's Oregon, from my limited knowledge. Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks.

Utah...
As of Novemeber 20 we had 619 registered officials in he state it appears( based on names) we have approximately 50 women... Most of our officials are located along the Wasatch Front (468) in this category we have 40 females..

This will be plus or minus a few but should get you at least into the county ... if not ball park ( including parking structures)

Juulie - I'll pass on this one. Too easy. ;)

Modified your first table to show you how to get tem to line up. Just "quote" it to see the formatting commands. The case of the letters (tr, td, table) doesn't matter.

All I have to say is, it's a good thing that typing isn't required for basketball!
