Those who’ve always wanted to be a whistle blower – on the basketball court, that is – will have their chance during a free session designed to teach participants the ins and outs of basketball refereeing.
John Barton, educator and athletic director for Weston Middle School, will teach the free session at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, April 22. The class, presented by the Tamástslikt Cultural Institute’s Community Academy, is free and open to the public.
Barton will provide instruction on the rules and regulations of basketball and refereeing, and how to acquire certification.
Community Academy presents opportunities to connect with a local teaching resource to revitalize and repopulate cultural knowledge and skill assets of the community, both Tribal and non-Tribal. Community Academy, which is always free and open to the public, is a periodic offering for community members by community members, based on the interests of the community.
