Remarks from the Supervisor of Officials: Donnee L. Gray
To Officials: I want to thank each of you for making the 2002 season such a success. MACBOA has strived to provide timely paychecks to staff. All staff should be paid by now. If you have questions regarding your paycheck, please give us a call ASAP (301.283.6807). If you "earned" a rating of 3.0 or below you should think about attending a Referee Camp/School. If you did not honor your contract by... During the pre-season MACBOA Clinic, an announcement was made that as many as 10 % of the current staff would not be retained for the 2002-2003 season. MACBOA will use the same criteria in the selection process for post- season assignments to retain officials for next season. My mandate is to develop and maintain a high-level functioning staff committed to the Mid-Atlantic College Basketball Officials Association (MACBOA). Please take your ratings to heart. I also want you to know that together with Tommie Scott, Head of Observers, we will re-evaluate Observer Game Report categories and criteria to better reflect accurate game observations. Call the MACBOA Office at 301-283-6807 for the cost for current staff members wishing to attend the Timeout Referee School. Please visit http://www.macboa.org/training/training.html.
