You would have to ask Laurie, she's definitely the most knowledgeable person in the entire state when it comes to fully staffing an event. I do know, however, that one wicketkeeper is probably not enough (you want at least two sets of eyes on it to ensure there aren't mistakes), and having only 1 CSA is going to make it very rough for teams who need help. I've seen a single CSA spend an entire afternoon with just one team who was having some odd control system issues (and I was there working with them half that time too)... Without other CSA's we either would have had to abandon that team to help others or leave others waiting indefinitely.

Most of those positions need some level of experience as well. We can't just throw people into them with no on-site Training from someone experienced.
