Welcome to the Tri-Cities Officials Academy (TCOA)! Since 2019 (minus two years for COVID), TCOA has been proud to bring high school basketball officials from across the region together for meaningful professional development and growth in our craft. Each summer we gather not just to learn, but to strengthen the officiating community that serves the game we all care deeply about.
We are excited once again to partner with Southridge Lady Suns Basketball this summer as we return to the beautiful campus of Southridge High School on June 12th & 13th. Over these two days, officials will focus on the core skills that make great officiating possible — strong fundamentals, sound mechanics, clear communication, and effective crew dynamics.
Our motto this year, “Train the Craft. Own the Angle.”, perfectly reflects the work we do as officials. Training the craft means committing ourselves to continuous improvement, learning, and preparation. Owning the angle reminds us that great officiating comes from putting ourselves in the right position, trusting our mechanics, and seeing the play with clarity and confidence.
Basketball moves fast, and the best officials are those who prepare, work as a team, and constantly sharpen their skills. TCOA is designed to help officials at every level do exactly that.
We look forward to seeing you in June as we continue building a community of officials dedicated to excellence.
Train the Craft. Own the Angle.

— TCOA Camp Director
At the Tri-Cities Officials Academy, we believe officiating is built on community. Together we will train the craft, grow as officials, support our crew, and build the confidence and leadership that define great officiating.
Our camp staff is made up of experienced basketball officials who work at multiple levels of the game and share a deep commitment to the craft of officiating. Each member of our staff volunteers their time to give back to the officiating community, investing in the development of fellow officials through mentorship, instruction, and on-court feedback. Their passion for the game and dedication to teaching help create an environment where officials can learn, grow, and improve together.
TCOA is for any high school basketball official looking to up their game, sharpen mechanics, improve positioning, and grow with other officials who care about the craft and want to keep getting better.
