anywhere from 1-3 weeks prior to the match. The home team must contact the assigned referee with any travel logistics. Game times will be assumed to be in the 1 p.m. range unless notified. We have many referees flying to matches so the sooner information goes back and forth, the better to keep costs down. If at all possible, the host team will transport a referee flying in to/from the airport. Home clubs are required to contact the assigned referees by Tuesday night of the week of the game. It is encouraged that teams/referees exchange cell phone numbers for any game day delays. Referee contact information is found in the link directly below the assignments link.
Referee assignments with contact information will be posted on the Midwest Rugby website - http://www.midwestrugbyunion.org/ (see link above).
* Coach/Team Evaluation of Referee As an educationmeasure, coaches/team representatives are asked to provide gameday feedback on their assigned referee. This feedback will be invaluable in shaping the referee landscape as far as indiviual development, and overall Midwest referee assignments. Forms can be emailed to Fred Thomas,

* Game cancellations The cancellation of any game MUST be reported by the home team to the assigned referee as soon as possible. The cancellation must also be reported to Tom Feeney of the MWRRS Appointments committee. Any fees incurred by the traveling referee will be charged back to the canceling team.
*Match Fees Match fees are due prior to your first game. The fee covers the referee for the first side game. Any additional games/minutes must be worked out with the referee. The fee per game is dictated by the league in which you play.

Please send a check - made out to the Midwest Rugby Referee Society for the match fee, times the number of HOME games that you will be hosting, to Tammy Cowan - MWRRS Treasurer 4122 Dight Ave Minneapolis, MN 55406
Please remember that match fees are ONLY required for your Midwest League games.
