I've been reading "Success Sports Officiating" and one of the things they recommend for officials is attending team practice or coaching clinics for your sport.
I'm curious if anyone does this as part of their basketball officiating career? If so what are some specific things you learned from the experience and how did you go about setting this up? Did you offer to speak about officiating to the team or just observe practice? Did you observe at the level you officiate or at a higher/lower level? My thoughts are that this would be very valuable if you never played B-Ball seriously but if you have played under coaches and know the fundamentals of basketball then would there be benefit to observing a practice? I guess there is probably always room for improvement on your knowledge of basketball.
thanks again
