Celtics game official (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ref

(Other definitions for ref that I've seen before include "Sports umpire" , "Middleman needing cards" , "Sports official (abbrev.)" , "Football's whistler" , "A diminutive umpire in soccer or boxing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
