I have long felt the need for a community of officials and hope I've found it here!
Jake,

My name is Grant Giles and I too am a member of the BC Basketball Officials Association, and Educator for the East Kootenay Association.

I assume you are a member of the Vancouver and District Association. I have always found BCBOA members love to sit and chat about officiating, usually over a beer after a game.

Start with Bill Denney. He is, as you probably know, quite approachable and there is not a better rules and mechanics guy in Canada. Need his number or e-mail, check the BCBOA website (bcboa.org).

Hope I was of some help.
