No, I want competent officials. Officials that don't call technical fouls for kids coming on to the court during a timeout because he had no idea another official granted the time out. Then, refuse to correct himself because being right was more important than getting it right. Intentional fouls called on kids simply trying to foul at the end of a game to put the other team on the line. An official that understands that going through someone's back to get a rebound is different than a taller player simply jumping higher. You know, simple things. No one is asking for perfection here, just improvement of consistency.

Again you seem to have some knowledge come help out just with training.

Yet another response saying "everyone who has an issue with officials should become one." It's quite a silly suggestion. Some probably have an issue with the window person at McDonald's getting their order wrong all the time. Does that mean they should go work part-time at McDonald's to correct the issue? Maybe a part-time gig at Academy because you can never get help there when needed? How about going to work at your local grocery store part-time because the check out lines are slow? 

SETX Officiating - A Victim of an Official Shortage or an Epidemic of Incompetence 

In a nutshell the answer to your question is Both. The shortage leads to less experience officials calling those varsity games you are referring to (nationwide issue).

I guarantee if you had the equivalent opportunities to view other chapters games you will have the opinion about all officials chapters (They're ALL horrible) and I'm okay with that but I do know you can't out officiate me. That's the mentality I have when the fans start yelling at me... Not out arrogants but out of confident because I put in the work to be that decent official I mention earlier * (I can't say that for others... they must take pride in themselves)

Real question itsme 2….. is the level of disrespect towards officials higher in this area than other areas you have officiated?  

It's the same from the local towards their local officials, again there are horrible officials/officiating everywhere.... locals get more opportunities to see their locals officials miss calls or have more opportunities to disagree with those calls. I wish GOGO would take me up on my offer maybe he could lend his experience to help out the area officials.

I do get it. I just don't care. The best officials need to officiate the varsity games. If these are the best setx has to offer, then there is an internal issue somewhere.

If you don't care why are you on here bashing officials... I will say there are just as many incompetent/horrible officials in other areas of the state/nation by percentage as there are in SETX, you just don't get the pleasure of seeing them on a regular basis to form an opinion that there are better officials outside SETX. I've seen them even worked with them.

Gogo I agree officials should be knowledgeable of the rules and be able to apply those rules  correctly.  Officials should take some pride in themselves to want and be able to call a near perfect game, because if ever as an official call that elusive perfect game she/he should hang up that whistle. Many officials put up the effort to become a decent official but there is a segment that just out there for the $$ and they are just like you THEY DON'T CARE! 

Every season we have you or guys like you to point out how bad the officiating is here in SETX, but again like the other poster mentioned ( where is your solution?) .... I have one if hyou will take me up on it, maybe you with all your basketball officiating rules knowledge come join one of the two local chapters to JUST train/teach the officials (seriously), you don't have to get on the court to call any games JUST HELP US GET TO LEVEL of officiating you so desire! 

Thank in advance

Man you scared me. I don’t wNt to lose Gallup but I can’t see anyway they can pay him. Here’s the problem with the early trade deadline in the nfl, which I think is either week 6 or 8.  If the COWBOYS are playing well they won’t trade him and will then lose him to free agency. Which of course means they get nothing for him. 

If/when(I would trade 19 before 13) via free agency Da Boys will get something back (3rd rounder) compensation pick. So If we are winning at mid season Da Joneses will have to make a big decision at the end of the season. Keep 19 or 13... 19 will not have a high trade value unless he stays healthy and produces. 13 is going to have to prove he's a #1 option, alot of #2 think/believe they're a #1 until they are in the #1 wr position and the best CB is covering him week in week out or the DC is rolling cover over to the former #2 wr. Then those wr can't produce at the level they once produced as a #2...Food for thought 🤔

I think if the 4 teams can agree to meet up at one school 

Again Regional Tournaments are back... I believe the four coaches that are involved will agree to play at same location. 

Regional Tournaments are back???

so that means the ref blew it

Yes the ref misapplied the rule...the defender must be in legal guarding 

position for the rule to be applied correctly (example if the defender is within six feet of the ball handler but has one foot out of bounds the closely guarded count shouldn't start because the defender isn't a legal player due to his/her foot being out of bounds. If the player is just standing within six feet of ball handler not trying to defend is another reason why the count shouldn't start. That ref just wanted to been seen or wasn't knowledgeable of the in depth rules that make the difference between a referee and an offical (There is a difference) but that's a story for another post!

That’s what I was thinking. They awarded Team A the ball. 

What game did you see that occur in...and was it a varsity game?
