I hope Referees respond. Such a shame there is a shortage. Countrywide things seem to be on the up, but it obviously takes at least a few seasons for the new crop of Referees to get to the level required for the games your area requires covering.

Fingers crossed - I just hope the referees operating at youth level decide to try open age, otherwise the issue will remain. It's desperate out there currently.

Sometimes it just takes a leap of faith to go from youth to open age, and in some instances perhaps better because they haven’t the parents on the side to contend with!!
