Basketball Officials

We are proud to assign officials “in-house” for all of our Gold Crown Basketball games. Keeping our assigning “in house” increases accountability as we continually evaluate our officials and improve the relationship between officials, parents, coaches, and players. We value all officials as an important and integral part of the experiences we provide to the youth that participate in our programs.  As youth sports begins to approach a significant shortage of officials, the research suggests that part of this is related to the verbal abuse and hostile environment some officials experience. At Gold Crown we recognize that our basketball officials provide a very important service to the game and the youth that participate in our programs. Ultimately, our officials are on the court to help the children learn the rules and how to play the game the right way. Without the men and women that officiate we simply wouldn’t be able to operate the best youth basketball program in the state.
