Officials play an integral role in any game, ensuring it is played fairly and safely within the rules. Many of our officials take on various roles at Camberwell Basketball, with some being players and coaches at Camberwell Dragons and with teams in the Community Basketball League.
It’s always a proud moment to see a junior player become a coach or take on the challenge of learning more about the game as an official. We’re all participants in the sport we love and members of a great association.
At Camberwell, our Technical Officials Commission (TOC):
To create an inclusive, safe and fun community, with a commitment and focus on growth,
