IMPORTANT CRB Disclosure News click here

click here for The RFU's Safeguarding Web Pages            click here for Hampshire RFU Safeguarding Web Pages

In line with Government policy, the RFU have announced that Society Referees no longer require a CRB Disclosure check with immediate effect. Therefore HRURS will no longer be making disclosure applications, as the RFU & CRB will reject them. Please note that those involved with their Clubs in other supervisory roles may still need the CRB check, and should discuss any RFU CRB renewal with their club.

All Society Referees are reminded that they should take great care to avoid any compromising situations with players Under 18 years old. For example NEVER change with U18 players, do not enter any communal shower areas without an adult club chaperone, and do not offer transport lifts (however well intentioned) to U18 players.

News from the USA (December 2009) : Dave Metcalf (former HRURS Referee & Adviser in 1980s & Alton RFC player back in the mists of time) has been promoted to Chairman, National Evaluation Committee USA Rugby.

Dave has been instrumental in guiding many of the now top USA Panel Referees by watching their performances, giving them very honest appraisals of their current ability, and guiding them on what it would take for them to achieve their goals.

In addition Dave has given advice and counsel on the art of evaluating to a large number of aspiring Assessors throughout the whole of the USA. In his new position, Dave has set himself the immediate task of developing a program that will enhance the number of Assessors at all levels in the USA and ensuring that their standards are consistently uniform in nature.

Good luck to you Dave.We salute your dedication to the game of Rugby in the Colonies.
