Same here. But, I understand and accept the situation. It only lasts a week!

I manage to work games all yr. But others have to wipe the rust off.....just a bit more than me! At least, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

I haven't worked a game since the second week of March. Wipe the rust off? I need some naval jelly.

Now if I can get a scrimmage where I have to rake leaves, that would be great. No problem there. I've recently had a lot of practice raking leaves. I can work a boys varsity leaf raking competition right away, no warm up needed.

New to the area I'm in...assigned to 3 scrimmages so far. One GV and BV each (both 3 man), and one GJV, so I'm happy about that.

I'm done with college scrimmages, 4 total (and getting game tape from 2 of them). I'm working one HS scrimmage for the new association I joined (Nov 17th) and 1 for my incumbent association (Nov 24th). First college game is Nov 15th.

Still spinning my wheels waiting and it is well past the time when assignments were supposed to be out. Hmmm...
