I see no need to force someone to work a girls game just so "they get good refs too." The officials shouldn't be forced to work games they don't want to work. Most officials here work both. Some work only boys, some work only girls. No big deal, really.

EC??

If so, I miss him too

I find that curious given that the girls and boys play by different rules modifications in CA.
It's the reason that I work only on the boys side.

It's the same in NY State. Boys play NFHS, girls play modified NCAAW. You need separate rules certification for both.

Why do they do that? I guess if there are enough officials, it's no big deal, but seems pretty inefficient.

This would be the greatest thing ever. "Sorry, but I'm not certified to work girls basketball."

I'm not at the pay grade to know why

I don't know about the rest of the state but within NYC, Long Island and Westchester there are more than enough officials to cover everything and lots of people - me, included - do both.
