REFEREE APPOINTMENTS

The Farah Palmer Cup is being officiated by a New Zealand Women’s Referees squad, complemented by two Australian referees taking part in an exchange programme with New Zealand Rugby. The squad is overseen by National Referee Squad Coach Paul Honiss, who is still New Zealand’s most experienced Test referee and was the world’s most experienced when he retired from the international game in 2008.
