You guys should come and referee in Australia!!!

Except at the professional levels (National Basketball League - NBL) most stadiums do not have locker rooms for officials. In most cases you either come dressed ready to referee, or else they have 3 toilet/change rooms - one for each team and one general one for the public, which referees use.

In addition - FIBA rules state that the referees must check the scoresheet after the completion of the game. This means that they usually are required to hang around after the final buzzer for at least a couple of minutes.
