As we head into another away round this weekend, we’d like to remind our Rugby community that respect is part of the game.
This season’s pilot law variations have brought new challenges for players, coaches, spectators and officials alike, and everyone is adapting together. Our referees and game officials - many of them teenagers, and always volunteers - are doing their best each week and deserve patience, encouragement and respect.
Wherever we play, we represent Bathurst Rugby. Let’s lead with sportsmanship, support positively from the sideline, and remember: without referees and volunteers, there is no game.
Please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the Rugby Australia Code of Conduct.
