SDCBOA Members,
As is done every year, the SDCBOA Board of
Directors met in May to review events of the previous year, introduce
new board members, elect new officers, and prepare for the following
year. This email is intended to communicate to members of the SDCBOA
some of the decisions made.
First, congratulations to our newest
board members Leroy Alicea, Robert Goode, and Bill Herzog who have shown
their commitment to the association and respect of their peers. Thank
you Greg Garner, our past President, for your years of service. Greg
led our association through many good times and some difficult
situations, while maintaining the highest standards of professionalism
and selflessly upholding his duty to the association. Thank you Mike
Rapp, our former Instructional Chair, for sharing your knowledge and
philosophies. We have seen Mike reach the top of our avocation as a
Division I official and have been lucky to learn from one of the best.
A
special thank you to Terry McIntyre who has decided to resign his
position as a board member and Executive Secretary / Treasurer. Terry
has been a driving force of the San Diego County Basketball Officials
Association for nearly 40 years. His love of basketball and passion for
officiating is only outdone by his service and dedication to our
association. He is a mentor and friend to so many of us and he has set
an example we should all strive to achieve.
Richard Davila and
Joey Garcia were again chosen to assign games during the regular high
school season as well as the summer "off-season" leagues, as Assignment
Secretary and Assistant Assignment Secretary. There is more opportunity
than ever before for veteran and less experienced members to referee
basketball games year-round.
Leroy Alicea was chosen by the board
to lead our instruction next season as Instructional Chair. His
teaching background and enthusiasm for officiating makes Leroy an ideal
choice. Quentin Norman remains our Probationary Instructional Chair and
is tasked with instructing the largest class of Probationary officials
in SDCBOA history. Quent has spent countless hours with his staff to
create standards for this group and produce "highly motivated"
officials.
Donny Myers, who has proven himself both on and off
the court to be a fair and capable leader, was elected Vice-President.
Both Donny and I are excited for the opportunity to serve you and hope
we can continue the tradition of our predecessors to uphold our duties
and lead the SDCBOA.
The Board of Directors and its Officers are
here to serve you, the members of the San Diego County Basketball
Officials Association. In as much, the board has agreed to meet four
times this summer to discuss important issues that affect the SDCBOA.
With the start of a new season we have an opportunity to build on
everything that makes our association great and improve upon any short
comings we may have. We encourage all members to share your ideas with
the members of the board (listed below and on our website) to help us
achieve our goal of being the best possible association.
We will
be accepting applications to fill the vacant Executive Secretary /
Treasurer position held by Terry McIntyre. This is an extremely
important position and is only suitable for the most dedicated,
organized, and professional members. If you are interested in applying
for this position, look for further instructions in a future email and
on our website.
Please make sure your contact information is
updated and you are able to access the website (
www.sdcboa.com), have updated your
availability on Arbiter (
www.arbitersports.com),
and have signed up for RefPay (
www.refpay.com).
Have a great summer, work hard, stay in shape, and prepare yourself for
the upcoming season starting in October. It will be here before you
know it.
