And there are officials that have very little boys basketball experience and are in over their heads when working those games.

If that was the problem, then they could easily request, in writing, to have more experienced officials. That would solve any real problems. The fact that they've gone through back channels with an implied threat of hiring a different association tells me otherwise.
