FIBA ASIA CLINIC FOR NATIONAL REFEREES
PHNOM PENH CAMBODIA
3 – 7 NOVEMBER 2007
Cambodia is not a strong basketball federation in Asia-Mainly due to lack of financial support from the government and genuine sponsors are hard to come by, Cambodia was unable to participate in SEABA or FIBA Asia Championships. Nevertheless, the federation has its elaborate programmes and activities in the promotion and development of basketball within the limited resources available.
2. With the Technical Assistance from FIBA Asia, Cambodia Basketball Federation (CBF) held a Referees Clinic from 3 – 7 November 2007 for the first time. This historical event attracted 25 participants from various provinces of Cambodia.
3. The clinic was conducted by Col Lee Kak Kuan FIBA Asia Referees Instructor and assisted by Mr. Yoon Wai Sun from FIBA Asia. Glad to say that there was active participation throughout the clinic. Being out of active exposures in higher level competitions, there was a general weakness in FIBA Rules and Interpretations. This clinic was timely to up-lift this problem.
4. Cambodia Federation sincerely needs help to complement its basketball agendas in the development of basketball. The well organized clinic held at the Cambodia Olympic Sports Complex, was indeed a success. It achieved its goal in providing training to the National Referees. More importantly, the evaluation of the referees was carried for the reference of CBF. There was an acute shortage of qualified Referees to cater for the National Basketball Events. It was clearly identified that several participants were weak in FIBA rules, Officiating Mechanics and physical fitness. It needs be emphasized that further national clinics should be held to enhance the knowledge so gained from this clinic.
5. At the end of the clinic, results of the evaluation was finalized for the reference of CBF. In conclusion, the 9 National referees and the 3 FIBA Referees should spearhead for further development of the Referees. Congratulations to CBF for the successful clinic. May basketball continue to excel for Cambodia.
Thank You for your support.
