The England Rugby Match Official Team have released something completely new for the 2025/26 season. They have created a live Handbook which will be updated throughout the season to support the needs of the Match Officials up & down the country.
To access the handbook please click here.
The handbook covers a wide range of information including the priorities for their team & how it links into every day refereeing, the Match Official pathway & the organisation structure on how this pathway looks which is vital for all those looking to progress up the ladder.
On a training front it has access to the BIG 5 information to keep everyone engaged on how these continue to fit into the community game as well as the professional. It discusses the new up to date qualifications & courses available to all those involved in Match Officials plus a guide on how the societies are their to support.
