MABO

There is more Nova ScotiaN representation at Nationals to celebrate!

MABO assignor Matt Boyle made us all proud at the men’s tournament, and had the honor of officiating the Bronze Medal game (pictured below). Matt gives so much back to officiating, from training new officials to spending weekends busy making sure all minor games have an official, all while pushing himself in his officiating career constantly. We love seeing his hard work pay off with these well deserved big moments! Congratulations Matt!

This happens to me many times when I’m photographing basketball. I’ll admit — I can have a bit of bias depending on who’s playing. When a call happens that I disagree with, I often go back and check my photos.

In this case, I didn’t think she stepped out of bounds. Neither did her fans.

But when I reviewed the image… she was out of bounds.

Moments like this remind me just how difficult the job of an official really is. Most times, they are right. They do an amazing job, making split-second decisions under pressure.

Respect for the stripes.
