Referee course

Fantastic turnout for the first Y&H Area refereeing course in over 10 years!

A huge thank you to Dave Francis for coming along to support and assess the tutors as they progress to becoming fully qualified referee examiners. Dave Dunsford passed his assessment for delivering a referee course and is now able to move onto the assessing practical exams next on his road to becoming a referee assessor. 

Well done to all candidates who attended and passed their theory exam. The next step is to contact your Area representative, get some practical experience, and complete your assessments.

With 19 attendees, this was an incredible opportunity to develop a strong group of new referees. The engagement and participation throughout the day were excellent, with everyone contributing in great spirit.
