TOURNAMENT MATCH OFFICIALS

Bay of Plenty Rugby Referees appoints Match Officials to all single and multi-day rugby Tournaments requested and sanctioned within the province. Along with match Referees, there are vital roles for Referee Coaches, Assistant Referees and administrators at each of these tournaments.

Appointments are typically NOT made via AppointMe due to the changing nature of Tournament draws, instead expressions of interest are gathered and attendance/appointments confirmed via email.

Are you running a tournament and require Referees? Complete a Tournament Referee Request below at least 15 business days before your event. Ensure you plan ahead and budget for the cost!
