Former NCBOA Member Passes
The NCBOA mourns the recent passing of former long time member, Arthur "Artie" Norack. Artie was not only a top notch high school official, but also wore the stripes at the collegiate level. He, along with his brother and fellow official Len, teamed up for many a game on the hardwoods of San Francisco. Artie is also currently the only member of the San Francisco Prep Hall of Fame inducted for his officiating abilities. His memory will truly live on forever.
High School Season Underway
Another high school hoops season has begun as teams take to the hardwood for non-league games and scrimmages. Members should check their email accounts daily for possible assignments. Also many of our Applicant and younger officials are looking for and in need of evaluations and feedback from you veterans. Hopefully you can arrive at your games a bit early to check out the crew working the early game. Check the Evaluations Page for information on submitting evaluations.

CIF High School Officials Uniform Requirement
NCBOA members who officiate at the high school level, please take note of the following. The state rules interpreter, the State CIF, and our local CIF sections have asked us to remind officials that the official and only acceptable officiating shirt to be worn during any NFHS contest is the 'high school' black and white striped shirt. The 'college' style shirt with the larger 3 inch black panel along the seams and underarm is NOT approved for NFHS contests and may not be warn. Please ensure that you comply with this requirement when officiating any NCBOA assigned high school game.
