Officiating Development Manager

Noticed this job is available again.
It seems to have been expanded since last time, and personaly I think that this job description looks great - I think that considering BSA are investing in a full time Referee Manager we should be seeing improved results in Junior & Senior umpiring in SA!!!!!!

I have noticed lately plenty of people posting negativly about the umpiring in junior & ABA basketball.

Perhaps this is a good opportunity for people to give positive feedback on this role.

I think it would be great to get someone from the SANFL or AFL with experience in developing officials at all levels

What do others think?
Does anyone know why we seem to advertise this position every 12 months or so???

Is the pay crap?

So many questions.....

Pay is crap and if you think having one full time person can solve all the problems in refereeing you're going to be very disappointed.

Appoint the right person and good things might happen but make it an extension of a job for the boys and stagnation will continue. A good, clear and firm direction that aims at improving the overall status, effectiveness and ability of oficials would be welcome as long as accountability and transparency are fundamentals of the program.I for one welcome it and would like to see it pay the same as Gliddon gets and that might attract an interstater.

80k and you might get something happening.

At the 40k to 45k on offer, you are only going to get someone that doesn't have the required soft skills to complete tasks nor experienced enough to be competitive at gaining funds out of a limited pot.

What is the REAL reason that Nathan is leaving??
My mail is that he had some great ideas, wanted to implement those ideas, but got no support from the leaders at Basketball SA. What a surprise!!

The real reason Nathan is leaving is because his 12 month leave was up, he got offered his old job back with a nice sweetner and he wants to go back to working in IT.

ANON12 do you get your mail from the same place Martin Hamilton Smith does?
