Liverpool Rugby Referees

1. Set your availability on WTR, if you continuously decline games you may find this impacts the games you get and your level as a referee.
2. Bring along a friend who wants to referee or coach – all are welcome as we are pleased to see people from all levels and all backgrounds.
3. Social media is a privilege, not an entitlement. Abide by social media policy or you may not have access to our social media going forward. This is code for knocking off the cr@p or you will be removed.
4. Read the RFU toolkit on new tackle regulations. All you need is online see Pitchero site https://liverpoolrugbyref.pitchero.com/news/tackle-height-hub-34831. Videos and examples of how we are all learning to referee and coach these new regs in Sept and Oct at mid-monthly meetings. Curry and learning – what more do you need…
5. Get your DBS updated if you want to referee games with anyone U17 or below. NO DBS no appointment.
6. Look out for local meetings in Sept at Wirral, Southport, and Widnes. A beer awaits you behind the bar. More details on Whats App, Facebook, etc.
7. We recognised Len Galeys passing with a minute's silence and a great recap by Dave Edmunds on his contribution to society.
8. Jim Heaney was recognised for 50 years of service to society. Chapeau! We have also got a 98% updated record of current active society members and will be doing some long service awards in October/November.
9. New kit bags and shorts (for active referees) are now available – to be picked up in person from mid-monthly meetings.
10. Sign in, don’t forget to sign up the attendees register on the night you attend. No signature means you didn’t attend.
