EVERY coach is allowed to "scratch" so many refs from calling at your school.

A lot of times the assigning secretaries have a hard time honoring scratches during tournaments because of the lack of bodies and schedules, but that sounds like what happened here and it's getting blown out of proportion.

I don't know about this specific instance - but I'm guessing it's something that happened during the All-A since that is the only time non-Perry County teams would have been playing at the palace. I don't know that scratches carry over to when your school is hosting other teams' games.

This is true, the coach has the opportunity to scratch 3 refs at the beginning of every season. If you are scratched as a ref, you are not allowed to call for that team. In this instance, these refs were not scratched by any coach at Perry Central, they simply were not allowed to ref games in the palace. This would include WYMT, All -A, and any other games that have went on in the gym. Total discrimination by the Perry County Administration.
