7 Man Mechanics Question
How many states use 7 man for their State Finals or any level of the championship games?
Peace

Two years ago, NC started using 6 man. That lasted one year. 6 man sucks.
Last year, we went to 7 man. Hope I get a shot at working those mechanics this year.

In ND we use 5 regular season, playoffs and finals.
(I will be WH for a final this year, 3rd final but first as WH.) Wish we had more than 5 but we are very experienced at 5-man mechanics so we are confident. My first final 15 years ago was 4 man and I was a wing. I think I collapsed after the game (actually more of a track meet!).

We have the option to use 7 in the playoffs at the will and pleasure of our masters...err I mean coaches.

Anybody have a good 7 man mechanics guide or know where to view one online? Our booking agent has a short one on his website, but it's only a couple of pages. Doesn't address pregame, coin toss, timeouts, etc, etc.

Texas has 7 man in both regular season and playoffs. We've had a handful of both over the last few years and I expect more in the next few.
I don't think fees are as much an issue as the perception that 7 officials will call more fouls.

If we have enough officials we just send 7 without even getting their permission. If the coaches ask who the crew is, we give them all 7 names. We haven't used 7 any this year and won't, due to having too many games and not enough officials. Perhaps the playoffs we will.
