500 Domestic Games 💥

A massive congratulations to Bridget on reaching the incredible milestone of 500 Domestic Games officiated for the PBA.

Starting her journey in 2022 as a green shirt referee, Bridget has worked her way up to becoming a Level 1 Referee through dedication, consistency, and an outstanding commitment to the program.

With our domestic competition running only on Saturdays, reaching 500 games in such a short time is an unbelievable achievement.

Bridget has become an invaluable part of our referee community. Not only is she a fantastic role model for our junior referees, but she is also someone our staff can always rely on. Whether it’s stepping onto a game at the last minute, travelling between stadiums in the same day, or helping game day staff wherever needed, Bridget always puts her hand up without hesitation.

Her professionalism, reliability, and willingness to help both on and off the court do not go unnoticed, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she has contributed over the past four years.

Congratulations Bridget, and thank you for everything you do for our referee program ❤️🖤
