Strange feeling. I'm starting to wonder if I'll be happy working 60% of my current schedule next season.

Anyone else live in a place where a certain night of the week is pretty much always a night off?
Wednesday night games are rare in our area.

Wednesday is actually one of our busiest nights. If the boys are home, girls are away and vice versa. That being said, I still somehow managed to have Weds off

Wednesday is the off night here. I think some schools play freshman games, but there are rarely varsity games on Wednesdays. My last game of the season is on a Wednesday though. Other than Sundays, I could work every night of the week, which I used to do. Got tired of being gone five nights a week though, so I work at least three, and sometimes four nights now. It's a good balance. We have schools 75-100 miles away, so if you get a week with a couple of longer trips it starts to wear on you.

As a general rule I only work 3 days a week. I tend to work Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. And Tuesdays and Saturdays can be often college games. Of course I can work an occasional Wednesday or Thursday for college, but not always. So I am off many days during the season unless something unusual is taking place like I had two games on Monday because of the holiday. I could not see doing that every week.

Peace

I had games schedule for Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Due to work I am only working Saturday and Sunday now.

It's been a nice break as I enter into the final stretch.

Wednesdays are usually dead in my area too, unless you like doing recreational leagues to supplement your schedule. I usually block Wednesdays, though. A mid week break to recharge the batteries and spend time with the family is a very good thing.

Wednesdays for high school are reserved for wrestling around here. Middle school will schedule games, but rarely high school.

AD's are really getting in a bind with two of the last three days snowed out. Games tonight are on though school was cancelled this morning for both teams--also rare. Normally it's "no school, no after-school activities."
