Step inside the action at New York City’s legendary Pro City at LIU Brooklyn, where we miked up NBL official Kenny Widgeon. Kenny’s journey is as unique as it is inspiring—he broke into the professional ranks in Australia after a connection through the Crown Refs Podcast with Scott Butler, the NBL’s Coordinator of Officials. With years of experience on both sides of the globe, Kenny brings a calm, seasoned presence to one of the most competitive summer leagues in the country.

In this episode, officials will take away practical lessons on handling tough in-game conversations: how to respond when a coach criticizes your partner, what to say when players demand an instant answer, and the one word that must never be tolerated in scholastic settings. Kenny also models how to use self-talk on every possession to stay locked in and project strong court presence. Plus, you’ll hear a proven one-liner that instantly moves the dialogue forward and gets everyone back to the next play. This episode is packed with actionable communication tools, mindset strategies, and game management insights you can bring straight to the floor.
