Referees

AYBL attempts to use NMAA certified high school and middle school basketball referees when possible.  With our league having +150 teams last year we are in the process of recruiting and training new and younger referees to meet the growing demand for highly trained and qualified basketball officiating.
Our expectations of our referees are:

1.  Knowledge of 2019-20 NFHS and NMAA Basketball Rules and Rule Changes.
2.  Proper mechanics.
3.  Knowledge of 2019-20 AYBL League Rules (attend mandatory rules meeting).
4.  Be in excellent physical condition.
5.  Good solid public relations and communication skills with coaches and kids!

2018-19 AYBL RULES CD POWER POINT CLICK ON LINK BELOW AFTER OCTOBER 1, 2015

It is not appropriate for any parent to approach an AYBL referee before or after a game and question their judgment calls on the spot.  Please be professional and communicate any concerns to our Executive Director and our Director of Officials.
