NYC-style...
NYC is different, mainly due to the volume of officials in the area. League games in the public schools are done through the Department of Education's athletic arm (PSAL). Non-league games are handled by the schools themselves. Each school finds one official or the home school will find both. The only problem there - to me - is getting paid. In league games the PSAL generates a check for you within 2-3 weeks after the scoresheet is posted on its web site. In non-league games the schools pay you directly, which can take months.
If it's a neutral site game (i.e., a tournament) there are more than enough guys who do assigning on the side to get those done.
I've had a few games where I've worked alone (none in a very long time) but we don't get many games where nobody shows. When that happens it's usually because the school changed the date, didn't tell anyone and didn't update it on the PSAL web site.
