Well we are on-going with our quest to list the All Time BBL Players, and Coaches and to this we will now add the All Time Referees. As per usual if you can add to this list, and I know you can, I would love to hear from you.
Mike Shaft with legendary British Basketball referee Roger Harrison
How about Wil Jones, Colin Gerrard, Richard Pierce, Trevor Pountain, Gordon Cole, Andy Thackray, Noël Malone, Peter Jaques. If I think of any more I’ll let you know.
Hello again Humph
A long time since we met and we are both older.
I still live in Blackpool and have fond memories of the times we met and enjoyed the game
Hope u are well and enjoying your retirement
Regards

Loved your article Mike – Roger Harrison must be the best for me – Have watched him over 25 years now. Had the pleasure to see him a couple of times this year – At Leicester he was excellent yet again (although our team lost).
Roger and Alan Richardson were a great team!
Sadly it seems to me that too many of the younger refs/umps are really struggling to keep up!!! Hope this finds you fit and well
Ahem, I was Grade One contemporary of Trevor Pountain, Bob Andrews, Nick Stonnard, Peter Jaques, Harry Keats etc, officiating National League and Philips Tournament matches.
All the best.
Hi there, I was a BBL and FIBA referee – qualified with Mike Howell and Chris Knowles. Refereed 1988 Cup final Kingston v BCP (Brunel Crystal Palace) with Colin Gerrard.
