We stumbled upon a digital session conducted by FIBA referee Julio Anaya headlined: ‘This is my preparation, and how do you prepare?’ . It apparantly was the first session for the new platform Referees Evolving Digitally. Lees “This is my preparation, how do you prepare??” verder
Sometimes we stumble upon great clips where even a subtitle would not help us understand what’s happening. :-). The following clip was shown in the dutchtalentprogram, and the question is clear we hope: are you calling a foul or a jump in this situation? And off course we’d love to hear your explanation.
