The following are testimonoials from people that have been involved with B-Ball Referees:

"B-ball Referees is a detailed roadmap to professionalism. Many camps teach mechanics, rules, and philosophy, but no organization addresses the importance of professionalism in the business of basketball. B-ball Referees armed me with practical advice in managing the game not only on the court, but also off the court."

"B-ball Referees provided me with the opportunity to work on my floor skills and mechanics in actual league games. Bernard Bowen and his experienced referees helped me with valuable advice on everything from game management to where you place your whistle when tossing the jump ball to start a game. There is no substitute for live game officiating experience coupled with constructive advice and instruction from current and former NBA, NCAA, PSAL, and CHSSA referees. That is what B-ball Referees is all about."
- Daniel Carey

"Networking was the most difficult part for me when first becoming involved in officiating. I was never really aggressive in trying to display my skills. Bernard Bowen and other veteran members of B-ball took me under their wing and instilled the confidence and focus necessary to achieve my ultimate goal as an official. Professionalism has always been the key for me when dealing with individuals and that is what makes B-ball a special group."
- Wesley Henderson

"The life long lessons I received from Bernard Bowen and the B-ball Referees organization has helped me grow into a patient and well equipped official. From the first day of tutoring to this very day, they have preached patience and professionalism, and those two key elements have helped me become a well rounded confident official. Regardless of how far I make it in this business, I always find my way back to Bernard and B-ball Referees for a little refresher course and I can also give the knowledge I received to newer, upcoming officials in the organization."
