Communication

I'm writing a paper for a communication class and I was wondering if anybody had articles or books that they could recommend regarding communication by officials.

Thumbs up

I would recommend you try "Calling The Shots" by Earl Strom. Besides being, IMO, the best book ever written about basketball officiating, he does cover the importance of communication between officials and also communication with coaches and players. Also, the photos are great, especially the one of Earl sitting on a stool smoking a stogie in the locker room after a game.
