The Manitoba Association of Basketball Officials (MABO) will once again coordinate a bulk-order opportunity for the new CBOC jackets and jerseys over the coming month.
MABO will begin accepting orders on Tuesday, May 19, 2026. An email announcement and website update with full ordering details will be released at that time. Orders will be accepted until Saturday, June 13, 2026, with no time exceptions.
Officials are strongly encouraged to place their orders during this window, particularly those interested in working at the 2027 High School Provincial Championships.
Important Future Uniform Requirements
- While the CBOC jacket will not be mandatory for the 2026-27 season overall, it will be required for any official assigned to Provincial Championships in February and March 2027.
- There will likely be only one additional ordering window prior to Provincials that would allow jackets to arrive in time for those events. Officials planning to work Provincials in 2027 are encouraged to order during this May/June window.
- Beginning with the 2027-28 season (September 2027), the CBOC jacket will become a mandatory part of the official MABO uniform for all certified officials.
Pricing and Delivery
- Jacket Price: $116.00
- Jersey price: $62.00
- Officials will be invoiced in July 2026.
- Anticipated delivery timeline is early to mid-August 2026, with distribution to follow shortly thereafter.
Bulk Ordering Benefits
MABO’s bulk ordering process allows officials to save on shipping costs when purchasing CBOC jerseys and jackets.
Officials are encouraged to share this information with fellow officials and colleagues. Supervisors are also asked to distribute this information to their leagues, particularly to newer officials who may require jerseys or jackets for upcoming seasons.
Officials who prefer to order independently may still do so by following the directions outlined in the promotional graphic above; however, pricing will generally be higher than the bulk-order pricing. Order directly here.
