📣 RESPECT OUR OFFICIALS 📣

A large number of the officials who make school sport possible are students themselves. They are learning, gaining experience and doing their very best, often while volunteering their time so that others can get out there and play.

They won’t get every decision right, and that’s okay. Just like our players, they are developing too. There is no place for abuse towards referees or officials in school sport.

Without officials, the games simply don’t happen.
