Dear Match Official,

 In August 2018 the Rugby Football Referees' Union and England Rugby's Match Official Development Team introduced a nationally standardised approach to supporting the development of match officials, placing

the match official(s) at the centre of a two-way high quality feedback process.

 The Rugby Football Referees' Union and England Rugby's Match Official Development Team agreed the following objectives to help achieve the project's aim:

 OBJECTIVES

• Construct role descriptors for those who support match official development, i.e. Match Official Developer, Performance Reviewer and Match Official Coach

• Provide clear guidance and training to support the roles for those who support on-field match officials

• Develop a suite of Review Forms that can be used to support the development of match officials at all levels of the community game

 The purpose of this short survey is to gather feedback from all those who have had experience of being part of the review process.

 Please access the link below to share your experiences:

Access to the link will close on Friday 25th  of January 2019.

 Kind regards,

 Jamie Leahy
