Final Dubai Report
- Wellington Rugby Referees Association
- The morning started off bright and early for Aaron and I getting up at 5:30am to make sure we had enough time to prepare for the long day ahead. We managed to get to the venue at around 8am to have a look around where all the pitches were and also to see the main pitch and all its glory. It’s hard to believe that the only thing that was holding up most of the stands is scaffolding.
