This required class is for all officials who are working to improve their 2-person or 3person mechanics. It will provide you with a foundation from which you can build a

Coach Speak
Coaches size up their officials even before they show up on the court. Wonder what
they are looking for in a good referee? You would be surprised that it goes beyond just
making good calls. A local coach will be present to fill you in and give you their
perspective.

Effective Use of Video
Many officials either don’t use video or do not utilize its full potential. Travis Motal is a
Division 1 college official and will demonstrate how video can help make better calls and
make you a better official.
The video we will be using will be actual film footage of campers from this year.
