Since i've asked for this forum - suppose best put something in it!!!!!!

Where have you been to referee abroad? What was it like - would you recommend it?

I'm a veteran of Norway Cup going over for my 8th year this year. Love the tournament (and the women!!!) great crack few years ago there were some prats from Norway ruin the fun but generally a very good crowd and great experiences.

I've also been fortunate enough to goto USA Cup in 2000 with a 17th year old Stuart Attwell! AVC Cup at Sportitalia, Bologna, Italy. A small tournament ran by Stevenage Borough in 2007.

This year i'm going to Copa Catalunya to venture out and also taking over 5 lads from my centre of excellence in Bedfordshire to ESFF, Disneyland Paris.

No been abroad to referee, unless you coun't going over to Engald, but I'm sure Dommer OFK will clarify weather that count for me again :p

I am going to the Norway Cup this year tho, so I'd love to hear anything anybody has to say about it!
 
Was supposed to go to Norway last year but had to pull out coz of injury. Wanted to go this year, but as im getting married this august, thought it best not to, well don't want the wife to be moaning in the run up to the wedding.

I've refereed in St Andrews, does that count as abroard?
