State of Mind presented the mental fitness session devised specifically for rugby league match officials as part of the Assura Rugby League World Cup Grants official support project
Last weeks session was delivered to the Wheelchair Rugby League Referee Society via zoom to cover all the areas where the sport is growing at a rapid pace in readiness for the Wheelchair Rugby League World Cup.
The project outline is as follows:
To survey referee society members across referee societies about their well-being
Deliver a mental fitness session to all societies
Offer individual support for mental health or refereeing
Repeat the survey at the end of the project
Offer mental health first aid training free to a member of each society
We would like to thank the Wheelchair Rugby League Referee Society and again thank Matt for the opportunity to present to the referees. Referees are vital to sport and we will be trialing a virtual reality experience early in 2022 for fans, players and coaches to #BeTheRef
Later tonight we will be presenting to the Huddersfield Rugby League Referees society and next month Hull Referee society
