Items of Note this month:

1. AVAILABILITY – UPDATE IT! We have some major events coming this month and we need all hands on deck. The Mountain League returns as well, and there will also be some summer 7s.
2. Development – there’s been very little in terms of engagement with our Referee Development Officer. Keep in mind, development isn’t something that happens to you. It requires personal engagement and responsibility. Please fast forward in the video to 7:45 for an RDO update. Contact Gilligan for more information.
3. Aspen  – as many have heard, this year there is a $10,000 purse attached to the Men’s Open and Over-35 divisions ($5k each). This raises the stakes significantly for us as referees, and this years selections will reflect that reality. We are planning to have jerseys as usual – but the Ruggerfest organizers will be selling sponsorship to cover their increased costs.
