What will you do?
Lots of options in the following clip where it at first seems that big things are happening. It gives a nice indication of why it is important to not be too close to play (IOT), because you might get tricked into making the wrong call.
Websession: Roberto Chiari about IOT
A few weeks ago we noticed that Individual officiating Techniques are not as widely known as we assumed. IOT is developed to help us as referees make better decisions on court, which will make our job even more fun to do! So let’s learn from the best! Mohammad Rahimy once again has Roberto Chiari , a two time olympic referee and very experienced referee instructor to share his knowledge about IOT. It’s very worth watching!! Why not start improving your knowledge before the next game you are going to do!
Covering and protecting the shooter
Referees should have full coverage on obvious situations in their primary. A shot is an obvious play – always! The correct way to referee a shooting situation is to use a 1-2-3 technique for shooting situations. When used properly this technique provides the details for possible foul or fake call. The action need to have contact to be illegal. Lees verder “Covering and protecting the shooter”
Jump ball!
Jump-ball situations are exciting, but unfortunately sometimes the administrating referee is unable to toss the ball properly. Analysis indicates that 50% of the violations during the jump-ball are caused by a poor toss by the referee. In other words, they could have been avoided. Tossing the ball is something that needs to be trained on a regular basis, unlike what is currently the case. Lees verder “Jump ball!”
Doo-Wop Friday! Charge/block/flop?
We still feel it’s kinda of a lyric from an unknown (or perhaps even unwritten) doo wop song: block/charge/flop ? What do you think of the clip Sam Subby selected??? And let’s be real: we’re not here to criticise the refs, we’d like to hear what YOU would call and why? Lees verder “Doo-Wop Friday! Charge/block/flop?”
Signals and Reporting!
Referees should use only the official signals defined in the FIBA Basketball Rules. It is a professional sign and attitude to use only the official signals. Personal habits and preferences only demonstrate a lack of understanding and professional attitude.

Don’t be shy, let’s hear your opinion and tell us why
We always stress the importance of covering your violations well. In the next Sam Subby video we can see why it’s important. Will you go for a travel? Or do we have a charge block situation and if so: What’s your call?? Please take the time to explain your idea!

Making a call, decision making and communication
Sometimes we underestimate the value of simple basic techniques in creating the solid foundations of successful basketball officiating at the top level. When blowing the pea-less whistle it is important to have enough air (force) in a short period to enter into whistle. This creates the strong decisive sound. Given the need to communicate verbally the decision after making the call, it is imperative we retain some air in our lungs. Lees verder “Making a call, decision making and communication”
