Basketball Team Referees
ORGANIZATION: SoulPhamm Inc
Please visit the new page to apply.

SoulPhamm is recruiting up to two basketball officials to join its Coaching Team for the 2024-2025 SoulGentz basketball program which serves young men in grades 8-12. Must be current residents of the US. Ideally, officials MUST be able to attend the team’s practices in Downtown Newark on Saturdays from 12:30pm-3:30pm until June 21 st.
To prepare our team for the realities of official games, referees will make all standard calls during internal practices - including fouls, violations, and technical fouls. This approach helps players become more comfortable with strict officiating, since we've noticed they sometimes appear surprised by calls during away games and tournaments. By experiencing consistent enforcement during practice, players will develop better awareness of their actions and emerge as more disciplined competitors.
Candidates must have expert knowledge of the game. Officials who are certified will also be compensated for any "home" games that we sponsor.
No phone calls please.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of young people by providing unique artistic and athletic experiences and performances, and to assist them in achieving the highest standards of professionalism through the development of discipline, skill, confidence, cooperation, leadership, responsibility and character.
Description
Our vision is to promote virtue, equity, unity, justice, faith, charity and a sense of common purpose and brotherhood among all people with an emphasis on the development and advancement of young people through education, athletics, service and the arts.
SoulPhamm was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in the state of New Jersey on June 25, 2021 and is the "birth-child" of Coach Luis ("Lou") and Dr. Leisa Herrera ("Mz. Doc"). The organization exists to provide training to young people in a variety of sports and performing arts and unique opportunities to display those talents through competition and performance. By integrating mentoring, life skills, opportunities for community service and academic enrichment to the athletic/artistic program, we help make our scholar-athletes as well-rounded as possible, capable of meeting and overcoming any challenges they are faced with. Although Coach Lou passed away suddenly in January 2021, the official launch of SoulPhamm was held on June 26, 2021, which coincided with his birthday weekend. SoulPhamm will recognize its own founding, as well as the achievements of our young people every year on the fourth Saturday of June, as a tribute to the life and legacy of Coach Lou.
