Remember that we have a major shortage of referees and touch judges in Victoria. Last year, some matches were cancelled due to a shortage of referees.

Courses are being run over the next few weeks by the VRU to become either a Touch Judge, or coach, or a referee. The courses will be held before the start of the season so you can be involved in helping if you wish.

- Touch Judge courses: 8th of April, at Scotch College, (and there will be others) - this takes about 2 hours in the evening.

- Foundation course, for Coach or Referee: 20th of April at Eltham - this takes a full day, and qualifies you as a base level coach and referee.

If you are interested in being involved, you can become a referee, or a touch judge, or a coach. Students of Year 9 or older and parents that would like to do one of the courses are most welcome to do so. Flyers for these courses are attached.
