What’s the Refereeing Journal?

What’s in it?  “The front section” containing

  • Basic match tracker
  • Set your season goal
  • Place to record your Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats
  • A kitbag checklist
  • A crib sheet to help you create your AR brief,
  • A place to track your fitness tests through a season.
  • And a season long Match Day Focus area – what are your big picture focus areas for each game area – Tackle, Ruck/Maul, Scrums, Lineout, Space, Safety/FP, Comms, Management.

And then of course, the Journal bit!

A calendar for the next few years

Monthly calendar sheets and then 4x match pages. For each match there’s three key elements

  • Prep page – all the info/things you need to get hold of and think about before your next match
  • Match day check in – some guided questions to help you get your head in the game.
  • Match review – chance to record the match data, score, pens, cards, any fitness data you might have tracked
    • Some simple quick game reflections on how you felt each area went
    • 3 things that went well
    • feedback points from others
    • Any reflections from your prep page focus areas and then a section for overall reflections and work ons.
  • There’s four sets of those pages in each calendar month and 10 months to cover – so there’s 40 sets.

It’s all undated by me – you start it when you’re ready, or when your season starts.

All together, that’s 178 pages of journal goodness, with a hard back and front and with sturdy wire binding. It’s strong enough to get you through a season of it being in and out of kitbags, cars, backpacks.

All for £18.50 (plus postage) – get yours now at rugbyrefereejournal.net
