New Referees Course

The Association of Referees Connacht Branch are holding a course for new referees in January 2013.

Refereeing gives you the opportunity to give something back to the game. Rugby referees enjoy the same benefits of the game as the players - without the injuries!

If keeping fit, having opportunities to travel, taking part in a lively social scene or getting an adrenaline rush is your idea of a great pastime, rugby refereeing could be for you. As well as the obvious benefits, a referee's constant study of the game enriches their enjoyment of this lifetime sport. There is more need for referees now than ever!

If you would like to attend the new referees course in January 2013 contact IRFU Referee Development Officer Peter Fitzgibbon by phone on 086-8322987 or by e mail  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
