Well the state association is good because they regulate all the high school sports, deal with disciplinary issues/suspensions, deal with recruiting, rate officials, and assign the state postseason tournament, which you may have heard is a pretty big deal in Indiana.

My local association (I'm a member of two) is good for rules discussion, hearing presentations on different topics, newer officials like me making connections to get games, and fellowship!
