Play in a Scrimmage Game

[zebraman55]

Wow! Neat idea in NC!

And, officials have to work them for points? Points toward what?

Do the officials actually look forward to working them? Or, do they see them as a hated necessity?

Also, what parts of the game does the scrimmage consist of? Clock? kicking game? Shortened periods? What levels count for points?

In Illinois, schools scrimmage, but only amongst themselves. Usually, it is centered around Fall Sports Night, where the teams do their practicing and families can come out and watch. Then, usually, the booster club has a cook out afterward. Officials will receive a small stipend, but generally not a full fee. These are controlled scrimmages, with no kicking game, no clock - just the coaches agenda for what he wants to see. This is generally XX plays with number one offnse, XX plays with Number one defense and so on.
