We cannot work games where one of the teams uses our local board officials, and the other doesn't.

Also, at least one female must be part for the crew on the floor (not an alternate) for girls state tournament finals. Some of our male officials get slightly peeved at this, they sit home while a less qualified official, because she has a vagina, gets the game.
