Teach, Train & Develop
Why this camp?
At the Steve Gordon Basketball Officials Camp, we focus on teaching three (3) person NFHS Mechanics, Structure, Positioning and combine them with officiating guidelines and principles to insure all attendees leave equipped to work three person games. Our focus on proper high school mechanics and guidelines will help prepare you for the next level of high school games.
We have put together a great staff that includes State Level High School Officials along with NCAA Officials and special guest speakers from all levels including the NBA, NCAA and members of the VHSL Hall of Fame. Each attendee will receive their game videos and other materials to help them with their development. Steve Gordon and his staff are hands on and will focus on insuring the camp experience is a great one for all those attend. Each Session is only two and a half days with two overnights to insure that even the busiest of campers has an opportunity to attend at a lower cost.

On Site Access to Video Breakdown
Watch your game video with Staff members to learn how to evaluate positioning, call selection, consistency, teamwork and focus. This provides a great opportunity to take what has happened on the court and take it straight to the video so what is being taught is easier to understand while the information is fresh.
Dynamic Guest Clinicians
Our camp focuses on teaching the fundamentals of basketball. This includes having guest clinicians from all levels. Invited Guests include: Scott Foster and Curtis Blair (NBA), Bryan Kersey, NCAA Assigner, Al Battista (pictured- NBA Scout); NCAA Officials: Roger Ayers, Mike Eades, Tim Comer, Sean Hull, Bernard Clinton, Matt Oblas and many others; VHSL Hall of Famers: Jimmy Jones, Cecil Hurst and all VHSL Commissioners.
We are a Teaching Camp
This camp is designed to pack a lot of opportunities to work, learn and focus in a short period of time. If you are looking for a camp to be hired to work college or professional leagues, then we aren’t the right camp. If you want to learn three person officiating, in a positive environment with a great and dedicated staff, then we welcome you.
QUALITY TRAINING
Whether you are on the court, in the classroom or during one on one opportunities throughout the day; we are here to provide the best possible training for not just three person mechanics but, also fundamental officiating principles that include: Big Picture Officiating, Primary and Secondary Match-ups, Understanding Help Defender Coverage, when to stretch your area of coverage, how to officiate different defenses, and much more.
