Guidelines for Reporting Incidents at AMBA Sanctioned Events
The Game Report tool is used to give feedback to our organization to help AMBA get better. We encourage parents, coaches, referees, and players to give feedback on both POSITIVE things they've witnessed, as well as concerns that they have witnessed.
AMBA is proud to operate our own officials organization (for Mini House Games Only) and we always welcome feedback (positive AND constructive) in order to make sure our officials are always improving and being recognized for their work. Participants are reminded that if the incident in question occurs during a CMBA game IN CALGARY, they should utilize the CMBA Game Report System instead. This differentiation is essential for streamlining the review process and ensuring that each organization can effectively respond to and manage incidents in their respective events. (the results will still get to AMBA)
PLEASE NOTE:
If the game report is concerning something that you feel AMBA needs to address then the form must be filled out with as many fields as possible to then help open an investigation process. AMBA has disciplinary rules against filling false/embellished game reports, please ensure that all information entered is factual in nature and not designed to cause increased punishment.
If the game report is being sent regarding our officials, please ensure that it is specific to our expectations of the officials which includes:
- Professionalism (Arriving on time, proper uniform, professional conduct, completing game reports and score sheets properly, etc)
- Knowledge of the rules (Making correct calls the majority of the time, understanding FIBA rules, understanding CMBA modifications, understanding game format)
- Game Management (Providing de-escalation and not escalation, ensuring games start/end on time, managing spectator behavior, managing coach behavior, managing player behavior)
If the game report is to compliment coaches, referees, gym monitors, or something AMBA is doing well, the form must be completed in its entirety and there will be no investigation process, however your feedback will be shared with the AMBA Executive Committee.
