Be Seen @ Parkes Touch Association

March 21, 2024 By Roxane Manley

As we wrap up our 23-24 season we would like to take the opportunity to thank our REFEREES for their commitment and support of Parkes Touch.

 

It can be a tough gig some weeks and not one that many people put their hands up to help out with. Without them we wouldn’t be able to play the game we love.

 

NO REFS = NO GAMES = NO COMPETITION. We appreciate each and everyone of you.

 

Next time you see one of these amazing referees around the traps, give them a pat on the back and say thank you.
