The KBOA (Kamloops Basketball Officials Association) is currently comprised of approximately 40 members, from university students to physicians, bankers, teachers, data analysts ..and many more. We all love the game and the challenges of refereeing basketball.
Our season really begins with training sessions in November, with high school play starting the last weekend in November or first weekend in December and continuing until mid-March.
It's great fun and we are glad you are interested in joining our association !
