Listen "#408 The Referee HelpDesk | Court Support #1"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to The Referee Helpdesk, the customer support center for basketball officials. Each week, I take questions I’ve received from referees across all platforms and answer them on Tik Tok Live—turning real-world scenarios into teachable moments for the entire officiating community. Think of it as your on-demand support line for everything that happens on and off the court.In this episode, we cover how to handle partners who see the game differently, and when it’s appropriate to change your call. We also dive into de-escalation tactics with coaches (“I’m very approachable…”), building credibility early, conducting productive postgame discussions, and balancing confidence with humility as you advance.🎧 Submit your officiating questions to [email protected] for a chance to be featured on a future episode—and help other referees grow through your curiosity. Serve the game.Join our communitypatreon.com/crownrefs
