It is always a good time to review Rugby Union Law! Or, you’ve taken the level 1 or level 2 Officiating Course. Now what?

Here are some things experienced referees or educators would tell you if they had just 15 More Minutes with you.

Why not take a read of some of a long law and let it simmer while you, let’s say, shovel the snow? Why not read a short law quickly and then contemplate its true importance to the game, or its relation to the other laws, while riding the stationary bike?

With the newsletter 15 More Minutes we offer you helpful 2-page tip sheets in the interest of assisting new referees learn the actual flow of game day – 1 process and 1 or 2 laws at a time. Sections include: Flow Know (processes) and Puzzled with the Laws (questions & games to stimulate law inquiry).

The issues will be sent through a list-serv – an emailing system that you can subscribe to, or UNsubscribe from, as you wish.
We will also have images of the issues and their corresponding PDF files available on the website here for multiple access options if you want to peruse at your convenience, without the hassle of the email. Many choices!
