JAKARTA - The IBL 2022 final which brings together Pelita Jaya Jakarta and Satria Muda Jakarta will be led by a referee from the Philippines. This appointment is based on recommendations from FIBA Asia.
The Filipino referee who will lead the IBL final is Joenard Garcia. Garcia's assignment was needed because three local referees with FIBA licenses were unable to attend.
Harja Jaladri, Budi Marfan, and Haryanto Sutarto are on duty abroad leading a number of matches for the 2023 FIBA World Cup Qualifiers.
"Garcia was recommended by the Executive Director of FIBA for Asia and the Head of the FIBA Secretariat for Asia, Hagop Khijirian," said IBL Director Junas Miradiarsyah, as reported by Antara, Saturday, August 27.
Junas hopes Garcia's presence can at the same time become a scientific exchange for local referees.
"In addition, it also opens relations with the hope that in the future our referees will also be trusted to lead competitions in other countries," said Junas.
The IBL 2022 final brings together Pelita Jaya and Satria Muda. Both teams qualified after both but needed two games to get rid of their opponents in the semifinals.
This final is like a repeat of a similar meeting in the top of the season which ended with Satria Muda's victory over Pelita Jaya through three games.
