I have just read this on SKY's website about Sarah Bennison's fantastic achievements and her dedication to refereeing rugby league matches:
www.skysports.com/story/0,19528, ... 57,00.html
Her ambition is to referee in the Super League.
I personally would advocate this, and am very interested in other peoples views. Do you think there is a place for female referrees and would they be welcomed by both the fans and the players?
Looking at this from an official and professional capacity, what obsticles are in the way to prevent this from coming to fruition? |

When I was at uni there was a Female ref in the SRL and she was best ref we had. If she can do the job then why not.

Similar article on the BBC website.
I think most fans would welcome any referee that was good at their job. If she can spot forward passes she's already ahead of most of the SL touch judges anyway.

None. If anyone has a copy of July's Rugby League World, there is an interesting article in there about the development of young and non-graded officials whatever the gender. |

There's no discrimination on rugby league terraces.
Any woman who refs in SL will become as much a figure of hate as any of the men.

As long as she gets home in time to cook tea, Friday games are off unless she makes something and leaves it in the fridge.

They would have to discriminate though;
'the referee's a w.....' Wouldn't be right.
They would have to be a bit more creative, any suggestions? |
