Women of DBOA

The Women of DBOA have been gathering for the last 3 months for education and camaraderie. This monthly gathering has been a great opportunity for our women officials to get to know each other and to learn from each other. New officials get to partner with veterans and have them evaluate their games and more seasoned officials learn how to study the game to prepare for the next level. We discuss rules, review game film, and discuss game situations. We had a fantastic session on conflict resolution on and off the court facilitated by Susan Hunter. We were also provided great feedback and understanding on how the role of women officials has evolved within DBOA by Pam Fox. There have been special surprises at each meeting such as personalized place mats with layouts of floor coverage, personalized buttons, and a fun gift exchange. We also have several outings planned to watch games and get live tips from some of our veteran officials. Don’t be surprised if you look up and see the pinks shirts at your game!!!!.

2007-2008 TASO Basketball Exceptions to National Federation Mechanics

Six-foot coaching box centered on either the first or second seat nearest the division line.

Foul reporting area: clear players and use three point line as a guide (2 or 3 person mechanics).

Lead will administer sideline throw-ins below the free throw line extended (2-person mechanics).

Switch only on shooting fouls and calling official will stay table side (2-person mechanics).

Three-person mechanics: Lead may move along endline to maintain better coverage if game clock is under 30 seconds in either half or overtime. This movement by lead does not initiate a rotation..


Clothes Closet

If you have any uniform items that you no longer use and are still in good shape, please bring them to the upcoming meetings for the Clothes Closet. Frank Papahronis will be accepting these items and making them available to our newest class of officials. Very few items remain from last season and we need to build it up to help offset the investment our new partners have to make.
