Rebeca Davila

Rebeca Davila (born in 1989) is a Puerto Rican professional basketball referee. In 2020, she became the third woman in history to work a Baloncesto Superior Nacional regular season game. On November 10 of that year,[1][2] Davila joined Carmen Garcia and Brenda Mateo as a woman referee in the league. Garcia was the first one, doing so from 2004 to 2014, and Mateo was the second one, working from 2010 to 2015.[3]

Davila also has worked as a referee at the Women's Baloncesto Superior Nacional league. During the 2020 BSN league's season, which, because of the COVID-19 outbreak, was played inside a "bubble" at the Wyndham hotel in Rio Grande, she was called to referee games.[4] During the 2022 BSN season, she was joined as referee by Sonia Maldonado[5] and, later also, by former basketball player Julirys Guzmán.
