International Referees

[Aussie_Dan]

Hi All,

Just came across your forum when surfing around today.

Has anyone here had experience refereeing outside of the USA? I have been refereeing for 10 years in Australia and wouldn't mind bouncing a few ideas off you guys.

Just remember if it is not FIBA, we don't see it in Australia..... There is no hallowed circle of exile painted under our hoops..... :-)

I referee in our ABA (2nd highest league in Australia) and have refereed finals at numerous national championships. I would just like to hear a little bit about the refereeing scene in the states and has there been cases where international referees have been successfully integrated into the USA circuit?

I look forward to reading your replies

Cheers,

Daniel
