So, you're interested in becoming a basketball referee. That's wonderful - we'd love to have you. Before you fill out the online application, there are a few things you should know. First, classes begin in September and run two nights per week for approxiamately 2 hours. Classes end in mid November. Attendance is important part of the program. You must commit to attending the required rules and mechanics classes. At the end of each phase you will need to pass a written exam, as well as a practical on court evaluation. The IAABO exam is difficult and not everyone will be able to pass with an aceptable minimum score. But you will have a group of dedicated and passionate teachers to help you along the way. Please review the full description of our program by viewing the complete program.
Application for membership in our organization is limited to individuals who are in good physical condition (as defined by your personal physician on the Physical Form) and who live in one of our 7 New Jersey counties (Bergen, Hudson, Passaic, Somerset, Middlesex, Essex and Union) If you don't live in one of these counties, please visit the IAABO site to find your local Board
Finally, due to the demanding program and our desire to ensure a quality education for all students, we limit the number of applicants each year to 50 paid individuals. This means that your spot in the class is not guaranteed until you have successfully registered and paid. The application below will allow you to register and pay online with a credit card. You may also pay via check if you prefer. Once payment is made, refunds will only be provided in extraordinary circumstances. Please ensure you can commit to the requirements of the program before applying.
If you understand and agree to the Program Requirements, please go ahead and fill out the online application. There is no paper application, so you must apply online here if you wish to enroll in the program. Once you have registered and paid, your application will be reviewed to ensure you are eligible to become a member. Successful applicants will receive an E-mail confirmation once their application has been approved. If your application is rejected for any reason, your payment will be refunded and you will be properly notified.
Thanks for your interest in becoming a part of our organization!
