In this edition of the Live From series, we document a full partner experience from the pregame discussion, into our observations from the first half, and of course the post-game recap. ⁣

⁣

Anthony Fischetti is a 20-year Official and former youth, middle, and high school basketball coach with over 500 games of experience. Anthony is a huge supporter of Crown Refs and I recently had the pleasure to work a varsity game with him. ⁣

⁣

We spoke about bringing positive energy into every pregame and the importance of building chemistry with your partner before discussing officiating. We also discuss the huge amount of bad information that coaches send our way during most games and the BIG need to block it ALL out. ⁣

⁣

We had some good laughs talking shop and we hope you enjoy this audio experience. ⁣
