Where are you this weekend? 2017/2018

[Ciaran Trainor]

Round the Duddon Estuary for Millom v Furness. Should be a nice L8 Derby and a few sherberts later

 

[beckett50]

Had my first draw in ages yesterday 22-22!

Have you done 6 laps of the Netherlands?

Road trip for me this weekend, so hoping the rain will have stopped.

Colchester 1st -v- Chingford 1st

4th plays top in the league (London1 North). It will be under lights as a 15:00 kick-off.

It does amaze me the number of Clubs that have lights round the 1st team pitch still change kick-off times. They've made the investment in lights, so why not use them whenever possible? Perhaps one of my learned colleagues could advise?

Reffing my first women's rugby match this season in Delft, and also my first assessment.

Enjoy

Referee it as if it were a good level Colts match - player ability permitting - and you should have a great time

League match called off due to waterlogged pitch on Saturday, youth game called of today due to snow.
I had to abandon match last Saturday after 40 mins due to serious injury to a player who could not be moved.
Two other league games called off in December due to frozen pitches plus a number of youth Sunday games.
I have therefore done one U16 and 40mins of league rugby in the last two moths.
Still got 18inches of snow at home. Big melt due tomorrow, no doubt resulting in flooding!

Thanks, it took a bit of getting used to! The first ten minutes I had higher expectations than warranted, and realised the penalties were racking up quickly. Much more management and coaching, and a pace around U14 level... but everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

Beckett, I think it depends on the lights. A number of installations will be OK for training, but not really sufficient for playing a competitive game.

It also costs to power the lights

St Ives L8 - blimey!

I did them at L9 years ago against Westwood - it was awful - about 85-10.

Assessor was a bloke with a Dutch sounding name - nice fella.
