How to Set Your Blocks in Arbiter 2018 - ArbiterOne - Arbitersports

A key part of our responsibility as basketball officials is ensuring that our availability is fully up-to-date. Assignors need to be confident that they can assign games to officials without unneeded turnbacks.

Today we will run through how to do a solid preseason setting of blocks in ArbiterOne, the leading assignment software in use today.

There are four steps to our approach:
1. Set blocks for normal working/school hours.
2. Layer on any known dates when not available.
3. Take back any dates where there is additional availability.
then
4. Refine the blocks by setting a mileage maximum, blocking specific partners, specific teams (coaches), blocking certain zip codes, etc.
then finally doing a report to ensure accuracy of our blocks.

Alright, that wraps it for this video.
