I just received a game on November 18 yesterday. So it looks like I will be working a week before.

Peace

Ah come on, I haven't posted in quite awhile.

Might possibly have new scoreboard to work with.

Also looks like we'll only have V and JV this year.

Despite that, he likes me working his league.

How much longer for you guys until your first game of the new season, rec or otherwise? Are you getting anxious?
Not getting anxious and I will see you on Saturday @ OES as we are working 4 games together.

Dude - I had no idea this was you. Just saw my schedule for the weekend. Besides the four JV/Frosh Women's (they don't call them "Girls" games at this level) I have with you that day, I have three 5th/6th girls games on Sunday at Aloha HS.

Better stock up on meds.

I've never worked games at OES (that's Oregon Episcopal School) before. I just happened to be driving near there this morning so I stopped to see where the gym was. It looks like parking will be tight this weekend.

Actually, working four straight games without a break isn't as tiring as it sounds, since the games are 22 minute running halves.

I don't count it as the start of my season, more like prepping for my season, but I worked 2 BV (3-Man) Fall League games last night.

I just felt sluggish and out of sorts. One of the varsity coaches who runs the league watched me work his team's game and asked if I was alright b/c I looked tired.

Hopefully I can get out there again before I go do any college scrimmages. After spending the last month watching football on TV I really had to train my eyes to quit watching the ball and pay attention to my primary. There were also a couple of times when A1 got trapped and I did not do a good job repositioning myself so that I was not straight-lined.

Since things get started for me in a little over 2 months, I've been doing some studying, just need to get a copy of the new Rules book (if there is one) to be up to date.

I found out via pictures in the local paper, that am gonna have a new scoreboard to operate, thankfully I have used the control system before.

Actually the school district built a brand new elementary school that has a scoreboard in it's gym by the same manufacturer of the new scoreboard in gym #1 at the high school.

I only made the recommendation of the manufacturer last year to the principal and AD. I was not expecting such swift action.

Depending on the response I get from the AD, the season for me might get started earlier as our boys' JH/MS season starts mid-November.

I donated about $40 to NFHS for Basketball Official training by purchasing the new Basketball Rulebook, Officials' Manual, Casebook and Handbook.
