Arizona Rugby Referee Society

The ARU season begins on January 12, 2013. Clubs-please remember the following:

• Home teams must contact the assigned referee by Wednesday before your match. If you don’t the match may not have a referee.
• Before your match there must be a meeting with the referee and representatives from both clubs to validate the rosters.
• It is the winning team’s responsibility to get the Match Report to the ARU Secretary.
• Every club must have a certified referee on their roster. B-side matches may or may not have an assigned referee.
• The $30/$20 referee payments will be made through the ARU, not paid at the field.
• Be nice to your referee, they do the best that they can!
