3 Man Officiating

I was wondering if anyone could suggest a good website and/or training video that I could download that teaches about the proper mechanics of three-man officiating. Thanks.

A1 is a post player. He's "floating" on the baseline and approaching the lane. Now...

Team B has possession of the ball in the restricted area under Team A’s basket when B5 and...

got it...but what about this

Thanks for the POI explanation. Let me see if I got this straight. Fouls that have equal penalities should cancel one another, right? So, using my OP as an example...

Dumb Question

Okay...don't laugh...I'm not familiar with the "point of interruption" (POI) that has been mentioned. Can someone break that down for me?

In my hypothetical situation proposed in the OP, I'm...

Cancel or Continue???

A short while back I posted something about a ref calling off a game in the 3rd period due to unruly players. Several of you gave good advice, which I put to use and as a league we decided to back...

Don't Hit Me!!!

I reffed a game last night and saw a play I don't think I've ever seen before on any level. A1 starts to drive the lane. B1 has perfect position to take the charge (he was standing about 4 ft away...

Almost every game that I ref here has a jersey issue. Our league execs told me to enforce the jersey rules, but only by issuing techs for the improper outfits. For some teams, there aren't two...

I won't go into how pathetic our situation is here, but needless to say we have a lot of work to do before we can ever call our league "decent". During a game this weekend, one of the new refs went...

B1 was dribbling in his backcourt and saw an opportunity to pass the ball ahead. At the last second he changed his mind, but the ball had already come out of his hands. Because he held back so much...
