Benjamin Feeney is a B grade level referee and has been reffing for over a year. His love of the basketball, having played since the age of 6, along with the want to improve his overall knowledge of the game were reasons behind Ben’s decision to become a referee. Officiating the U14 to U18 age groups is most enjoyable for Ben, along with any Men’s Senior games on a Wednesday night. A highlight of Ben’s reffing career is developing his knowledge of basketball, learning new communication skills and making new friends with other referees. Ben finds his biggest challenge consistency and keeping focus over the course of a full day of reffing.
Fun facts – Ben enjoys playing NBA 2k25 and watching Netflix for fun. His favourite Basketball player is Russell Westbrook, and his ideal place for a vacation would be Bora, Bora.
Congratulations once again to Ben on being selected as referee of the Month of October and continuing your referee career!
