Abstract: The article examines the directions for applying progressive ideas from the American experience of the professional development of basketball referees to improve the national system of sports officiating in Ukraine. The relevance of the study is determined by the need to modernize the professional training of referees in accordance with contemporary international standards through the implementation of the competency-based approach, digital technologies, and effective organizational and pedagogical mechanisms for professional development. The purpose of the article is to identify and scientifically substantiate promising directions for applying progressive ideas from the American experience of the professional development of basketball referees to improve the corresponding system in Ukraine. The study employed a set of general scientific and specialized research methods, including analysis, synthesis, generalization, and comparative pedagogical analysis of scholarly literature, regulatory documents, and the practices of professional development systems for basketball referees in the United States and Ukraine. The findings indicate that the American model of referees' professional development is characterized by continuous learning, a multi-level career advancement system, a competency-based certification model, extensive use of digital technologies, video analysis, mentoring, psychological training, and systematic evaluation of professional performance. Based on the research findings, promising directions for adapting the American experience to the Ukrainian context were identified, including the introduction of a continuous professional development system, digital learning platforms, centralized referee performance evaluation, a competency-based certification model, mentoring programs, modern approaches to psychological and physical training, and the expansion of international cooperation. It is substantiated that the comprehensive implementation of these directions will contribute to improving the quality of referees' professional training, enhancing the objectivity of officiating, and integrating the Ukrainian sports officiating system into the international professional community.
