Becoming a rugby referee requires dedication and commitment to the sport. To start, you'll need to take an entry-level referee course, covering the basics of the game and the rules. You'll then need to build up your refereeing experience by officiating in lower-league games and youth matches. As your experience grows, you can apply for a place on the national referee panel, which will allow you to officiate in higher-level matches. Regular attendance at training sessions and seminars will help you to stay up-to-date on the latest rules and regulations. In order to reach the top, you'll need to demonstrate focus, passion, and the ability to make tough decisions under pressure. So, if you have the skills and determination, you could become a rugby referee!

Rugby has traditionally been seen as a sport associated with the upper and middle classes. This is due largely to the fact that it was first played in the elite schools of England. Despite this, the sport has become increasingly popular in recent years and is no longer seen as a purely "posh" sport. There are now rugby clubs in all parts of the country, with participants from all social backgrounds. While there is still a perception that rugby is an expensive and exclusive sport, this is not always the case, as many clubs offer affordable membership fees. Ultimately, rugby is a sport that is enjoyed by people from all walks of life and should not be seen as a sign of social status.

Rugby union and rugby league have their roots in the same sport, but in 1895 the two branches of the sport split in England. The two sports had different rules and governing bodies, and the split was caused by a disagreement over the sport's amateur status and whether players should be paid for taking part.
