Saturday, June 13 at EuroBasket Women 2009 marked a historical moment for the importance of technology for the modern basketball game.In the game of hosts Latvia against Slovakia the Digital ScoreSheet was used for the first time ever to help support a referee's decision.
Digital ScoreSheet combines game video with the official scoresheet.
At the end of the second quarter, Slovakia's Zuzana Zirkova attempted a three-point shot from the half-court line that went in.
While one of the umpires acknowledged the basket, the crew chief wanted to verify if the basket was made before time expired. The referees did not hesitate and turned to the Digital ScoreSheet table officials for confirmation.
The Digital ScoreSheet crew played the video and the images available for them, helping the referees come to a conclusion that the basket was outside the time limit and should therefore be cancelled. You can watch the full video of how it happened by clicking here.
Digital ScoreSheet combines game video to the Official Scoresheet, allowing for easy review during the game and giving officials the opportunity to asses their own performance afterwards.
It has been in operation since EuroBasket 2005 but this is the first time that it was ‘consulted' by the referees during an official game.
"The referees are human beings; there is no doubt they can always make an error. That's why we sometimes, especially in cases when a decision regarding time is involved, need the technology to support their decision," commented FIBA Europe's Referee Coordinator and Digital ScoreSheet developer Miguel Betancor.
"With the use of the Digital ScoreSheet FIBA Europe tries to facilitate tournament officiating, the same way it tries to facilitate the participating teams or the media."
FIBA Europe has already agreed to provide the technology to other FIBA Zones for use in their own competitions in the future.
The FIBA Americas Championship for Men, which take place this summer in Puerto Rico, will be using the Digital ScoreSheet technology for the first time.

be the persistent inability to have an erection or to maintain it for a sufficient
amount of time. Erectile dysfunction is often called impotence though this is not precise, because impotence includes other
symptoms, like the absence of sexual desire or ejaculation
difficulties.
