21-23 April: Women’s Six Nations plus all the other top referee, AR & TMO appointments

The penultimate round in the Women’s Six Nations with things heading for a climax next weekend in what looks like a record women’s rugby attendance at Twickenham. But this weekend, Aurelie Groizeleau (top left), Clara Munarini and Lauren Jenner are the referees in charge.

There’s lots to play for in a lot of leagues and competitions around the world. Very tight at the top and bottom in France as the Top 14 heads towards their climax. Luc Ramos (top right) has a relegation thriller as Brive host Pau.

We have the match officials for all the usual leagues plus some new ones. The Women’s Premier League resumed last week in the US – Jenny Lui (bottom left) will be having a run out this weekend in Chicago, and in Scotland they’ve just resumed the Super Six series – we have the Teams of 3 for those below. In Wales, it’s the Premiership Cup Final. Dewi Phillips (bottom right) has the whistle for that one. Congrats Dewi.

Enjoy your weekend
