Huge thanks to Trowbridge RFC and Weston-s-Mare RFC for a really enjoyable match to referee yesterday. 2 sides who wanted to play fast, open, flowing and clean rugby. 13 tries, minimal penalties, zero appealing/dissent. Rugby’s core values in spades. This is why I ref. 👏🏼👏🏼 Dorset & Wilts Refs

My thanks to Trowbridge RFC & Longlevens Rugby for a hugely enjoyable match to referee. Great Clubs with excellent discipline & core values. Did I get everything “right”, did I see everything? - of course not. Respect for officials is what makes our game so amazing Dorset & Wilts Refs
