SCBOA Officials Camp
About SCBOA Camp:
Since 2016, the SC Basketball Officials Association has provided classroom and on-court instruction to hundreds of officials who have wanted to improve and grow in their officiating. The camp teaches and reinforces officiating principles and philosophies that apply at any level. Camp clinicians are accomplished officials and highly effective instructors who are committed to helping campers improve. The SCBOA provides excellent opportunities to those wishing to improve their high school rating and schedule. Many past participants made significant advances in their officiating after attending camp. Camps can accommodate approximately 200-250 campers per summer. Campers are permitted to attend as frequently as desired, although SCBOA members would have to go once every three-year cycle in order to keep his/her maximum points. That is to say, if a camper attended in 2021, in order to keep the 5 points in his/her rating score, that same camper would need to attend again anytime during 2022, 2023, or 2024. The next three-year cycle will be 2025, 2026, and 2027. (For more details about the camp points system, please see the next section "Camp Points Overview" or scroll down for the Frequently Asked Questions section.)
Camp Points Overview
Camp points are part of the rating system, found in the 20 points awarded for Attendance at Clinics, Examination, and Trainings. For more information about the SCBOA Rating Score, please CLICK HERE.
It is important to know that the 5 points for SCBOA camp are automatically added to an official's rating score, and will only be deducted on the final year of a three-year cycle (and any subsequent years until SCBOA camp is attended) if the official does not attend a SCBOA-approved camp. For example, if an official attended camp in 2021 (part of the 2019-2021 cycle) they will have maintained their 5 points for 2022 and 2023 and will only have 5 points deducted in 2024 if they do not attend camp at least once during the 2022-2024 cycle. This official will continue to have their 5 points deducted each year until they attend a SCBOA-approved camp. The purpose of this is to encourage officials to attend camp consistently and to provide officials with high quality feedback that will improve their officiating craft. There is no limit to the number of times an official may attend a SCBOA-approved camp.

SCBOA Camp Three-Year Cycles
SCBOA Camp Cycles
The SCBOA Camp utilizes a three-year cycle (triannual) system that requires officials to attend a SCBOA-approved camp at least one time every three-years. Failure to do so will lead to a 5-point deduction from that official's rating score, which will continue to be deducted until they attend. It is important to note that an official must only attend a SCBOA-approved camp once in any three year cycle, though it does not matter if you attend in Year 1, Year 2, or Year 3 of any given cycle. Listed below are each of the three year cycles since the inception of the SCBOA camp system in 2016.
Cycle 1 - 2016, 2017, 2018
Cycle 2 - 2019, 2020, 2021
Cycle 3 - 2022, 2023, 2024
Cycle 4 - 2025, 2026, 2027
Cycle 5 - 2028, 2029, 2030
Future cycles have not been confirmed, but will be added as they are confirmed and approved by SCBOA leadership.
