Additionally, the SARDP will feature guest speakers and presenters who will provide participants with high-level officiating education and development opportunities. Participants must actively engage in all sessions, be available to officiate throughout the competition year, and complete all assigned tasks.
Tonight, we will be officially launching and welcoming the referees into the SARDP for 2025.
We congratulate all selected referees and look forward to seeing them continue their officiating journey through the SARDP. Basketball SA remains committed to fostering referee development and empowering all South Australian officials, ensuring a strong foundation for the future of basketball across the state.
