ClubLFC supporting REFspect campaign

Celebrating its 20th year, the cause works with various professional football bodies to raise awareness of the problems experienced by referees at all levels of the game and tries to eliminate them.

The REFspect national awareness weekend begins today (Saturday April 28) and aims to improve the behaviour of parents and spectators by reducing the number of incidents of poor touchline behaviour.

This, in turn, will help maintain the current number of referees and attract many more new officials to the sport.
