More than thirty (30) professional referees have pledged their support for the Rigo Rice Cup Rugby Competition.
The referees had a brief session with the tournament CEO, Mcsteve Polly, and deliberated significant points, guidelines and inhouse discussions leading up to the tournament.
These referees were formally signed up by the KCK Rigo Rice Cup host organizing committees, and are ready to officiate matches in the four different pools throughout Port Moresby.
Rigo Rice Cup CEO, Mcsteve Polly, during the meeting discussed the importance of fair play and integrity when officiating matches, especially in major competitions that involve more than 10 teams participating.
A female touch-rugby judge was also present among the referees.
She voiced her concerns about the need for more women in the field, expressing her hope to see more women touch-rugby judges working alongside male counterparts which was taken note of by the RRC Team.
Meanwhile, the KCK Rigo Rice Cup will be launched on Saturday the 09th of November, where the total number of participating teams will be announced together with their names.
