It’s the grand departe of the 2025 Guinness Women’s Six Nations this weekend. Zimbabwe’s Previous Pazani (pictured top left) take charge of her debut Six Nations match as the Roses host Italy in York. At the other end of the experience ladder, Hollie Davidson (top right) is in Belfast as Ireland host France. Texan, Kat Roche has the third match in Edinburgh. There’s also Ella Goldsmith refereeing in Spain as they host the second of Brazil’s European tour matches. Go well ladies.
Elsewhere, the men’s domestic leagues kick back in after the Six Nations break. Adam Leal (bottom left) will be at the Big Game as Saracens take on Quins at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium. The URC and Pro14 are also back with the usual array of officials in play. In Carolina, Kahlil Harrison (bottom right) takes the whistle as the Anthem host Houston in week five of the MLR. It’s the opening weekend of the new Women’s Elite Competition in the US too – good luck to Lindsey Oliver and Katie Roth who’ll referee the two opening matches.
We also have a the officials for the Hanoi 10s in Taiwan, the AIL in Ireland, Dutch men’s prem, Super Rugby Pacific, Aupiki and W, plus South Africa men’s and women’s comps, and the West Asia Super Rugby series in the dessert countries.
Plenty to keep you all busy. Have a great weekend
