Referees

Referees

All referees are expected to apply rules fairly and to treat all players, coaches and parents with respect. However, during the game the referee has total control of the gym and may eject any coach, parent, or spectator from the gym for loud or obnoxious behavior which detracts from the play of the game. All coaches, parents and spectators are expected to demonstrate good sportsmanship by refraining from harassment of referees and the players from opposing teams.

If referees are missing from a game or late, the game can be started if coaches/parents are comfortable handling (one started game has to be played). The game will count in the standings. If coaches/parents are not comfortable, we will try to reschedule.  Missing referees must be reported by the coaches to their league age commissioner.

In the event of poor referee performance, or if the referee insults or berates or uses foul language to a player, parent, or coach, that referee should be immediately reported Basketball Commissioner, Matthew Pickford at  matthew.r.pickford@gmail.com
