Discipline Update

Discipline Secretaries

With the start of competitive rugby across the County soon to be with us I am keen, as in previous
seasons, to have a clear process for all clubs to follow should there be a red card issued at senior
level and age grade.

Please notify me, in writing or by text, by 9.00am of the second day after the game being played
stating:
Name of club and player
RFU registration number
Date of game
Offence
Name of referee and which Referee Society he/she represented

I include below the link to the RFU website for the relevant discipline regulations.

discipline

The Disciplinary Regulation and appendices can also be found on our website, please ensure you are
familiar with the content and advise the relevant volunteers within your club of the procedures to
follow. Should you have any queries regarding the regulations please contact me as I am happy to
support.

Once again, I am setting up a database of all club discipline officers for the 2026– 27 season so
please confirm to me your name, contact telephone number and email address so I can liaise with
you effectively should the need arise.

Many thanks and I hope we have a quiet season for discipline matters!

Yours in rugby

Alison
