USA Rugby Referees has announced that Matt Eason has become the USA Rugby Referee Coach Manager. Starting immediately, Eason brings a wealth of experience to the team having played and captained California State University, Sacramento and playing for Sacramento RFC. In 1992 he started refereeing along with practicing Law in Sacramento, having spent some time as an elephant trainer. As a referee he officiated in many USA Rugby National Championship tournaments including the ITTs, Men’s Club and Collegiate.
Since his retirement from refereeing, he has featured in many roles, including IRB Referee Educator, IRB Judicial Officer and USA Rugby National Referee Coach.
USA Rugby said that referee coaching needs a progressive forward-thinking Referee Coach Manager whose main focus is what is best for the referees, the game and its future. During six years as a USA Rugby Referee Coach, Eason has proved to be very successful and innovative.
“It was a natural progression to appoint to this position, as his continued success and leadership as referee coach, made him the ideal candidate,” said USA Rugby High Performance Referee Manager Richard Every. “He has already laid the groundwork for a new and improved approach to referee coaching in the USA and we are excited to work with him”.
Looking to the future, Eason’s goal is to develop a larger pool of Referee Coaches, assist in establishing pathways and structures for referee coaches to progress from local to national level, and to develop and maintain top-level USA referees that serve the game at national and international level. He has been selected to attend the annual IRB Talent Optimization Program in South Africa in July 2013 where the new Coach of Match Official Level 2 course will be trialed.
“The level of play in the USA can only continue to improve if the quality of refereeing continues to improve with it,” Eason said. “I’m honored to be selected to serve USA Rugby in this critical area.”
I do consider all of the ideas you have presented in your post.
They are really convincing and will definitely work. Still, the posts are too short for beginners.
Could you please prolong them a bit from next time?
Thanks for the post.
