As part of the 2027 Country Championships SA Country Basketball will be expanding the development opportunities for all referees and referee coaches.
There will be an expectation that referees that are playing also help out and referee a couple games a day to ensure we dont overload other referees, we will work around your game times and where possible will not roster directly before or straight after your game the more people that put their hand up the less games everyone has to do.
You will notice in the form we are not asking referees which venue they are available for, the reasoning for this is that referees will be rostered to games in line with their accreditation, experience, and performance.
This will best allow each referee to be assessed and receive feedback on games in line with their accreditation. If you are playing we will check which venue you are playing at and roster accordingly.
