Tourist gets call to referee scrimmage

TheStar.com | Sports | Tourist gets call to referee scrimmage
Amy Bonner, a resident of Sarasota who referees in the WNBA and NCAA, found herself working Toronto’s scrimmage here last night, a planned vacation from her vacation.

“Any time you’re afforded to work at a high level, it’s a great learning experience,” she said yesterday. “Because I’m in Venice visiting, it’s just a short train ride up to Treviso.

“They afforded me the chance to referee and any time I can get on the court with me is great.”

Bonner, who is on a vacation to celebrate her 36th birthday this week, worked a women’s tournament in Bratislava earlier this summer when she made contact with Euroleague and FIBA officials.
