Why not becoming a Rugby Referee ? |
Last Updated 02/01/2012 |

Body telling you its getting to old to play - but you still want to be involved in the sport ?
Forced to stop playing rugby due to injury? Just want to be involved with the Game you enjoy ?
Perhaps you need to become a Society or a Club Rugby Referee !
You don't have to join the Hampshire Society to be a referee, just simply do the RFU course and referee for your Club or School.
Course - What course?
Before you referee any game of rugby you should complete the RFU's referee
training course - for everyone from 14 yrs to 64 yrs !
The course is called the Entry Level Referee Award and is provided locally by RFU appointed trainers. The course is designed both for new referees and those with limited experience seeking to acquire additional knowledge and understanding. It seeks to provide referees with far more than just knowledge of the Laws of the Game and covers areas such as Management and Control, Contextual Judgement, Positioning and Communication.
How long is the course?
The course has 2 modules which each last a day. Normally both modules are
taught over a weekend. For course dates click above.
Does it cost?
The current cost of the course is £40, but in a lot of cases your club /
college / school may
help pay this.
