The North Texas Basketball Officials Association needs at least 600 referees for the upcoming season to officiate high school and middle school games.
At times, McCallum said there have been 60 to 100 games having only one referee, affecting officiating quality and game experience.
The demand for skilled referees in North Texas is rising, but some people avoid officiating due to concerns including the fear of being treated poorly by players, coaches, or fans. Time constraints, full-time jobs, and family responsibilities are also factors. NTBOA invites anyone interested in becoming a referee to register for the upcoming basketball season. Applicants must be at least 16 years old and experience is not required. The association offers on-court training to equip officials with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel and avoid the stress of crucial decisions.
Referees can work as much or as little as they want with flexible scheduling. On the high end, referees can make as much as $7,000 in an entire season. A gas mileage stipend is also provided for driving to the games. The season starts in October and runs until February.
