Noah Jordan began reffing in 2023, driven by a passion for basketball and a desire to experience the game from a new perspective, Noah became a referee. With a background playing basketball since the age of 6, he currently plays for EDJBA and VJBL with the Eltham Wildcats.
As a B-grade level referee and recently a supervisor, Noah thrives on the excitement of officiating, especially enjoying U12 A grade games for their fast pace and talent. A standout moment for him is reconnecting with referee friends every Saturday and Monday, which adds a social dimension to his role. Balancing a demanding schedule, he finds managing fatigue during long Saturdays challenging, especially the first couple of U8’s games.
Fun facts – Noah loves to relax by watching TV with his dogs. His favourite footy player is Patrick Cripps, whose dedication to Carlton he greatly admires. Noah dreams of exploring Europe and visiting its ancient historical sites.
Congratulations to Noah, our Referee of the Month August 2024!
