We're getting really close to camp. Before you know it, you'll all be standing in line checking in to the camp.  

 

I wanted to share something with everyone.  This is how the NBA identifies each officiating position during the game. 

Take an honest evaluation of yourself before the camp.  Where you fit most at the moment? 

Re-evaluate yourself again after the camp, and see where you feel more comfortable.

See you at camp!

  

Crew Chief Position

  • Proficient in Referee and Umpire positions
  • Leader of the crew, on and off the floor
  • High-level play calling, partnering skills, and tools for handling any game situation, including interpersonal communication
  • Understands the importance of extending into their secondary area of coverage, with accuracy

 

Referee Position

  • Proficient in all Umpire position requirements
  • Effectively the glue for a crew through consistency, teamwork, and communication - makes partners better by carrying a larger portion of the crew’s load than an Umpire

  • Ability to recognize and appropriately manage shifts in game conditions (intensity, emotions, decorum, style of play etc.)

 

Umpire Position
