Great to see this from one of our local clubs.
Big thanks to Grangemouth Rugby Club for your support and appreciation of our referees.

Here at Grangemouth Stags Rugby Club we are eager to show our appreciation to our Referees! ❤️

Without them, there would be no rugby games! 🏉

Club rugby relies heavily on volunteers, both on and off the pitch. At Grangemouth Stags Rugby Club we want to promote a positive culture for all referees who visit, and ensure they are treated with respect from all.

Yesterday we had the pleasure of welcoming Referee Dave McKervail to Glensburgh to referee vs

Thank you to both Dave and Broughton Women for visiting yesterday and we hope you had a great time at the club.

As always,

“Referees, players, supporters - all one rugby family”

The society is deeply saddened this week following the news of the passing of a long-time member, Bayne Shaw, who dedicated his time as both a referee and a referee coach.
Our heartfelt condolences are with Bayne's family and friends during this difficult time. Those who had the privilege of knowing Bayne will cherish the memories of his contributions to the rugby community.

Friends and family can add photos, memories and messages on their lasting tribute page today.

Thank you Kirkcaldy Rugby Club for sharing this important message.
Our match officials greatly appreciate your support.

At Kirkcaldy Rugby Club, we are proud to represent the values that lie at the heart of our sport — respect, integrity, and community.

We want to make it clear:
There is absolutely no place for abuse of referees at any level of the game.
Referees are volunteers who give up their time to make rugby possible for everyone — from minis to seniors. They deserve our full respect and support, both on and off the pitch. Abuse, whether from players, coaches, parents, or spectators, goes against everything our club stands for.

To all match officials:
Thank you for what you do. Rugby at Kirkcaldy, and across Scotland, simply couldn’t happen without you.

Let’s set the example for the next generation — cheer loud, play fair, and always respect the ref.
