CYA Basketball uses volunteer referees to officiate games in the Winter program for Grades 2-8 and in the Spring program for Grades 4-8. Volunteers can be either adults or youth aged 13 and above. Winter games generally begin mid December and Spring games at the beginning of April.

Volunteer referees are paid between $10-$25 per game, depending upon experience and the age level of those playing in the game. Whistles and uniform shirts will be provided. Experienced officials are also needed for our mentoring program and will be paid to work with our newer referees.

In order to officiate for the CYA basketball program you must be at least 13 years of age and have attended the mandatory training sessions held on October 27th, 2012. If you have any questions please contact the Referee Coordinator, Monica Despins, at despinsm@yahoo.com.
