This coming Saturday October 22nd and Sunday October 23rd we ask that all players, mentors and supporters stand united in full support of our referees with a national Respect the Referee Day. Without referees there would be no games to attend and enjoy. Uachtarán CLG Larry McCarthy has penned the below article for Respect the Referee Day ahead of the games this weekend.
