You Make the (Hoops) Call: Video Officiating Tutorials

Since all college hoops fans have a little extra time on their hands these days -- postponements, anyone? -- don't miss this opportunity to get a basketball fix from the comfort of your home during the sudden and unanticipated interludes involving your favorite teams.

I'm referring to the short video tutorials disseminated by the NCAA that break down key rules of the game -- and how referees are trained to officiate these rules.

Narrated by the NCAA's national coordinators of officials in men's and women's basketball, these video vignettes serve officials, coaches, players and fans alike.

The GNAC endeavors to post these video links on www.gnacsports.com as well as our conference social media platforms upon release by the NCAA. Click here to see where they live full-time.
