If you have recently changed your email or your street address, would you, please take the time and contact me and BWA with your new contact details.

Volunteers

I am looking for volunteers for the Schools Sport carnival at Willetton. We will be doing games with students. My plan is to operate like WABL with the students doing the scoring ipad and timing and we will do the shot clock and if we have enough a Chair.

Procedures

FIBA have changed the scoretable procedures for a 4-person set up. If you have 5 officials, please proceed as usual with the Chair in place. If you do not have 5 then the Timer will be responsible for sounding the horn and calling substitutions, timeouts and putting on the team foul lights. This is in addition to their other duties. The Scorer will continue to get the scoresheet checked, signed and starting 5 marked. Please make sure you establish with the Coaches the protocol for calling timeouts and emphasise that substitutions will only be called when the player presents.

Expression of Interest

The roster for Under 16’s has been done and distributed. The EOI for NBL and WNBL 23/24 will be out soon.

FIBA Opportunity

Congratulations to Peta Small who has been selected to officiate at the FIBA Asia Cup in Sydney.

We wish her well for the week.

The NBL and WNBL 2022/23 seasons are moving quickly toward finals. Thanks to everyone involved on those rosters for the time you have put in. Our officials focus for the NBL 1 season ahead will be “game awareness” as this has been one area that needs improvement.

Education

Coordinators would you please run the Level 1-parent course in 2023 at your stadium and the shot clock session separately if you have any interested parents. Course materials are available from Daniel Coffey (BWA), Pam Langshaw (Willetton) and Kathleen Scott (Cockburn).

Morning Tea and Presentations

The morning tea and presentations at Willetton on October 22 went off well. I hope there will be another one to catch those who have not their pins presented.

If you do not have 5 then the Timer will be responsible for sounding the horn and calling substitutions, timeouts and putting on the team foul lights. This is in addition to their other duties.

The cards for 2023 are complete and ready to be distributed. I will be giving them out during the courses above.

Look forward to seeing you all soon.
