WELCOME TO LSRFUR

Founded over 125 years ago, The London Society of Rugby Football Union Referees is committed to providing dedicated and capable match officials across all levels of the game.

Each season, our 500 qualified referees officiate over 10,000 games for 300,000+ players. The Society welcomes those  who are looking to referee once a month within their home region, and those who want to officiate at the highest levels of the game.

The world's oldest and largest refereeing society
