The
Level 1 Course is the basic referee’s course. It covers the referee's
priorities, provides an introduction to the Laws of the game, risk management
as well as examining scrums, rucks/mauls, tackles, line-outs, offside and
advantage with focus on the critical aspects of the game and how to referee
them. The course does not go through the Laws of the game page by page. There
is an open book test at the end of the course which students are invited to
take. The test will be marked on the day so you will know when you leave
whether or not you have passed. Where you do not give the correct answer to a
question (s), you are given the opportunity to review your answers and
re-submit your test paper. It is unusual for people not to pass with this style
of test, so you are encouraged to take it.
Attendees
will need to wear comfortable clothing suitable for both classroom and on the
field practical sessions.
The
fee for the course will be $50, payable online at www.usarugby.org (click on the referee
option in the left option bar, then choose the registration for a referee course
button). It is required to be a current member of USARugby, commonly
known as CIPP.
