Statement on Referee Abuse

Our rugby club is fully committed to ensuring that match officials are treated with respect at all times and not subjected to any abuse.

The Premiership Forum (formal group of Premiership clubs) has issued a statement to this end:

"The concerning and increasing trend of incidents of abuse of referees has been highlighted by the Scottish Rugby Union, and all RBS Premiership clubs have jointly agreed to ensure that all players, coaches, club officials and members understand that this will not be tolerated at any level of play and we will work to remove the problem from our game.  Please show respect to our match officials at all times."

Ayr RFC is wholly supportive of this statement.
