Reffing Junior Hockey

I'm going to post this on a throw away account because I don't want anything getting traced back to where I am or potentially some of the people involved.

So this past summer I did a couple pre season games for the junior association where I live. I am currently at school away from where I live.

That is important because I did not realize there we're different zones that you have to "try out" for and cannot switch unless approved by the higher ups. This being said I eventually get hired on and am now apart of the junior association and can start doing some regular season games. Now going back to where I did not know that there were zones because no one had communicated anything to me at all whatsoever. So now I'm scrambling with all my school work while also trying to figure this reffing thing out because I want to do some games close to where I'm at school.

Here's where I find out that oh well wouldn't you know there's different zones and I can't switch over. So I am talking to the assigner for where I am at school and he says he would take me on so I'm like okay this can workout. He tells me that I can either come over to this zone and won't get many games or I can stay in my original zone which I would have to go home on weekends and do some games which was fine with me. So I email and say that's what I will do and I will come home on some weekends to do games so that I can still be apart of the staff and whatnot. Come to find out I got replaced in my original zone without any word of acknowledgment from the assigner from my original area.

This has been a long enough post but all I'm going to end off with is that the communication from some of these leagues is actually atrocious and replacing people without saying a word to them and letting them know is abysmal. So to any younger kids looking to get into junior be prepared to be fired/replaced without getting any communication from the higher ups.
