Club History

Southland Rugby Referees Association

The Southland Rugby Referees Association was formed in 1895 with 30 members. Most of these members were current players and held fortnightly meetings at the Albion Hotel. Prior to the establishment of the association, games did have referees in Southland, however there was often great debate in the dressing room around who would take control of the match. Test match referees from Southland are Dave Bishop, Paddy O’Brien and Keith Brown.
