My local chapter, not sure about the state, allows for solo referee'ing for any matches except for Varsity. And if I remember correctly, it is automatically "both checks to the solo referee". but I...

Reebox ZigTech

Anyone got them? Just got mine today in the mail and it looks a little ridiculous. Anyone actually wear these? Do they go well with the "official" look of a basketball official?
