The members of the ABA League j.t.d. have approved the final list of referees for the 2026/27 season. The list comprises a total of 55 referees, 24 of whom were also included in last season’s referees list, representing 44% of the total.

Furthermore, 43 referees on the list (78%) come from Balkan countries. Another four referees come from countries whose clubs participate in the ABA League (Romania and Slovakia), meaning that a total of 47 referees (85.5%) come from countries represented in the competition.

The remaining eight referees (14.5%) come from other European countries (seven referees) and America (one referee). The average age of the referees on the list is 37.

It is worth recalling that, following the postponed start of the season, the Referee Commission requested approximately six weeks to conduct its initial work with the referees and complete the selection process. During this period, the initial list, which has been in effect since Round 2, was gradually expanded. Upon completion of the selection process, an additional 17 referees, who were also part of the ABA League refereeing roster last season, were included on the list.
