Final Stats for the 2013/14 Season

Total of 80 games. All High School on 94' floors with a couple being on the 84' floor. I did not track mileage in the 11 JH games that I worked.

Distance Run
Total: 131.41
Average: 2.09
Girls: 2.13
Boys: 2.03

The distance was calculated with a regular pedometer set to a 30" step.

Edit: Did not track mileage in 3 JV games and 3 scrimmages in addition to the 11 JH games. Total of 63 games with mileage tracked.

35% Relative Percent Difference ???

We do have some long walks. We have several schools where we meet across the table at the halftime buzzer, wait for the coaches to clear, go get our jackets, switch the arrow, and take a long walk, including walking down a flight of stairs, back to the locker room, where it seems we get a three minute warning as soon as we pack up our jackets. Two one way trips, and one two way trip. But that only happens a half dozen times each season.

How far does an official run/walk during a typical game?

How many miles does the average basketball referee run in a game

80 games and 131 miles = average 2.09? Must be the new math.

He did say that 11 of the games didn't have mileage data....so it would be 69 games for 131 miles. Still not 2.09, however.

Let me whip out my slide ruler. 131/80 = 1.6 miles. 131/69 = 1.9 miles.

That's when, with real good teams, the game is so action-filled that it can't be done without six eyes on the ball at all times.
