Referees sharpen skills at camps
The first of three camps that Euroleague Basketball is running this summer for its referees was held over the weekend in Douai, France. A total of 10 officials were on hand to sharpen their skills under the tutelage of the Euroleague Basketball Technical Commission, headed by refereeing supervisor Costas Rigas. The referees at the camp were drawn from Euroleague Basketball's own ranks and included eight others proposed by FIBA Europe to join the competition. The other members of the commission are current and former referees Romualdas Brazauskas, Carl Jungebrand, Juan Carlos Mitjana and Goran Radonjic. Upcoming camps will be held in Croatia and Poland on the first and third weekends of July, respectively. "The interest show by our referees to work and improve in the offseason is something that can only enhance our competition," Rigas said at the conclusion of the camp. "Euroleague Basketball is committed to the idea that everyone involved in our competitions can keep improving professionally just as our players do from season to season."
In France over the weekend, the referees worked live games in a tournament of under-18 teams from Germany, Bulgaria, France, Poland, Croatia and Greece that was organized jointly by the French Basketball Federation and the Basket Club de Douai. The scene shifts to Markarska, Croatian from July 2 to 4, when four under-20 national teams - Croatia, Greece, Italy and Turkey - will be in a tournament sponsored by the Croatian federation while Euroleague referees work and analyze the games. Finally, from July 16 to 18 in Krakow, Poland, the referees will hold camp during a tournament of under-18 teams from Spain, Sweden, Slovenia, France and Poland, whose federation is organizing the event along with Future Stars, a London-based organization.
