Keeping Mark-offs (Blocks) current in Arbiter
was the #1 issue in 2013-14.
Officials place blocks in Arbiter for specific
dates. Then, when their game is rescheduled
to a date that they had blocked, they send an
email saying that date was really open.

At end of half, crew meets at center circle
to make sure arrow is correct, score is
correct and all books in agreement.
No comment and thank you is the extent
of your conversations.

Official called a coach “boy” and told him to
sit down
Official told scorekeeper they were not going
to call anything against the other team
Official told coach he got “no call” absolutely
correct and to send them film to RSO. (He did
and not only did we miss it, we should have
ruled the foul flagrant)
Why do we say anything that can be
misinterpreted?

Don’t wait until the last minute. Take it on
Monday or Tuesday so you have time to deal with
issues.
Make absolutely sure your email address in NFHS
matches youe email address on the NCHSAA site
exactly!
Must make 75 or higher to work NCHSAA games.
(Lost 3 officials for the season last year)
Must be a Class I or II Official to work PostSeason State Tournament (Lost 7 officials for the
play-offs)

Ejections – Must communicate to the coach and let
him know whether it is a DQ or ejection. Don’t leave
the gym without everyone knowing.
Calling official must submit the report within 24
hours, but don’t delay. Do it that night!
Report also required for DQ’s, etc so the players will
have to go through the STAR program.
Coach can be DQ’d (2nd technical for being out of
box) or ejected (disrespectfully addressing official).
Get this right! Both require reports.
Fighting adds 2 games to the suspension.
Do not call a second T on the coach during same
dead ball interval unless he storms the court. Please
let your partner handle this.
