At short notice the RFU asked the Society to provide a Team of 3 for the Leicester Academy versus Saracens Academy played at Oakham School on Saturday 18th January. The Tigers won a very tight match by 2 points.

On Friday afternoon we finally got a set of Match Officials together with Duncan Chandler refereeing and Nick Houghton and Kerrel Wills as AR's.

Belatedly, Paul Clayton receives the Ken Foster Shield for season 1918-19 from the President Kerrel Wills.

The Shield is for the referee who supports the appointment secretaries best in refereeing junior rugby within Leicestershire

The highlight of our Novembers meeting was a presentation by Christophe Ridley one of the elite referees who started his refereeing career with Leicestershire

We also welcomed a new member Matthew Groves
