Mentoring Remotely, and still being effective with a
Global Pandemic with No End.
After the strangest season on record ended, this is often the time when Bernard shines – helping officials improve and navigate uncertain waters. In this pod, we discuss the even more uncertain climate of officiating, what we can expect NYC Basketball to be this summer, and how technology that we have now, helped him adjust to helping Basketball Referees. All that and more, my conversation with Bernard, now.
“When you can’t change the direction of the wind, adjust your sails.”
– H. Jackson Brown Jr.
“This is like when you can’t stand on the baseline. YOU ADJUST.”
– Bernard Bowen Sr.
Be sure to check B-Ball Referee’s and Referee Rant’s collaboration, The Referee Roundtable, which will be posted on the other podcast feed, Tales From the Third Team. It will be available through all major platforms, including the video version on YouTube.
“If we have to ref a game mentally, and talk it verbally, that’s what
referees have to do, NOW.” – Bernard Bowen Sr.
