Same thing in MN. I do have one JV game on my schedule where they've scheduled 4 officials, but I'm pretty sure that was an error on the part of our association's schedulers.

My subvarsity stuff is about half 3-man and half 2-man.

We have it good here. I never work less than 4-man and have all the work I could possibly want. If a school asks us to send three, I reply we only work 4-man and up and they can pay for 4 or find another crew. I've only had to tell one school that in 3 years and they were happy to pay for my entire crew (5!)-- they just thought they couldn't get more than 3 so that's what they asked for.

4 man for everything below varsity.
5 man for varsity.
7 man for the SD Section semi-finals & finals.

We use 4 on all sub-varsity and 5 on all varsity. If the school wants fewer officials they are SOL.

In my part of Pennsylvania

4 officials for games under varsity
6 officials for varsity
7 officials in every playoff game

In section 5 of NY, we use 5 man for all varisty, but only 3 for JV. Which is a joke, quite frankly. You cannot officiate a football game with 3 people.
