SBP says in talks with UAAP on 'pay gap' for women’s hoops referees
The Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) has initiated a dialogue with the UAAP regarding a reported pay disparity for referees officiating men's and women's games.
Reports indicate referees in the men's division receive P3,000 per game, while those in the women's division receive P2,000, a decrease from P2,500 last season.
Referees for the juniors' division reportedly earn P2,500 per game.
The UAAP explained that the pay structure is tiered and merit-based, citing the faster pace of men's games as a factor, and that their technical head made recommendations.
Moving forward, the UAAP will ensure no reduction in referee fees across all divisions compared to previous seasons while maintaining the tiered system.
