Continuous Referee Development

It's vital that all referees continue to develop their craft of refereeing so they can support our game.

The WRU have developed CRD opportunities that are delivered by our WRU Educators out in the community at local rugby clubs, thees are designed to support referees at the level they are officiating at.

Interesting topics such as Advantage, Managing the Ruck, The tackle, The scrum and The lineout have already been developed and are currently being delivered to support our level 1 referees.
