Found out a week ago.
I was selected to work the post season this year in high school football.
I will be officiating the Tuesday after Thanksgiving at one of the playoff games.
For the two leagues I work, 100 different referees worked them with 60-70 being "primary" officials who work the league regularly. From that, only six of us were chosen.
I was floored and surprised. I feel honored and wish I could run back and thank the coaches and head referees who put in good words for me.
Being my first time selected, I am only eligible to work a first round game. (On your second selection, you are eligible for a high school super bowl game in Foxboro.)
Special thanks to R for putting up with all the Saturdays and evenings I am gone in the Fall refereeing.
