Easter 2024 referee, ARs and TMO appointments

We’re into round two of the Guinness Women’s Six Nations with Kat Roche heading to Bristol, Sara Cox (pictured top left) to Edinburgh, and Hollie Davidson to Dublin. In Spain, an all Welsh female team of three will be looking after the home side against neighbours Portugal. Good luck Jenny Davies (top right) who leads the team as she becomes the first internationally capped Welsh player to gain the same cap as a referee.

In the URC, league leaders Leinster are at home, where Craig Evans (bottom right) will be on hand to officiate. It’s Super Rugby round six and the former champs, Crusaders are winless. Theyre hosting the Chiefs this week, with Angus Gardner (bottom left) popping over the Tasman to referee.

As well as all the other matches in those comps, we have all the other refs, ARs and TMOs for the Premiership, Champ in England, the US MLR, the SA Cup, Welsh Premiership, Scotland’s inter-regional and Sarah Beaney cups, Irish div 1, and the Top 14 and ProD2 in France. Plus, Japan’s Div 2, Super W and Super Aupiki. Plenty to keep you busy!

Enjoy your Easter weekend
