This is my first full season and I'm 43. So far I've been injured twice, the first time with a groin strain and hip flexor injury and now with an slight fractured fibula.. Can anyone give me any gym or training tips to get my body conditioned to doing 6 miles in an game and not getting injured ?

I am recovering from an injury so am having Sunday's off and so I decide to go and watch my local under 12 team who have asked me to ref for them a few times. What I saw confused me as a few of them were wearing like tights under their kit , one kid had an orange base layer when his primary kit...

. I've Got a question about hesitating though, I sometimes see something and put my whistle to my lips but then think no that's fine and don't blow. I got picked up on that by a couple of players last night to which i told them to stop watching me and play to the whistle. Should I go with my...

Today I had a keeper that parried the ball in the goal area, he then followed the rolling ball to the edge of the Penalty area and picked it up .. I gave an indirect free kick for handling twice.. Was I correct ?

I was just wondering how does the respect handshake get organised in the park and who starts moving first .. Simple question I know ha ha

Possibly the best bit of kit I've bought to keep things organised. Love my refsworld organiser :)

ive got 2 fox 40 classic whistles and one is the cmg version. Which ones do you prefer because even though they are supposed to be the same the non CMG one seems easier and louder too. Has anyone else had this.

Saw this on eBay , made me smile
