Rugby referees require a strong set of mental skills to effectively manage games, including decision-making, focus, and communication. They need to maintain composure under pressure, manage stress, and stay focused for the duration of a match. Furthermore, a rugby referee must be consistent, objective, and maintain respect for fair play.
As rugby has evolved, the match intensity has extended to referees from fans, coaches, and organisations to officiate games at this same standard. And with this heightened expectation, referees have looked at other critical performance areas such as physical condition, strength training and nutrition to enhance performance. It is also essential that referees of all levels consider psychological preparation and skills to meet the demands of officiating.
The NBI® Rugby Referee Instrument identifies your thinking preferences as an individual rugby referee. As we are dealing with preference, it is important to note that there are no bad or wrong profiles. The profile is a descriptive, non-judgemental analysis, with no profile being better or worse than another. Instead, the report gives you a description of your thought preferences, and makes recommendations based on those.
The NBI® Rugby Referee Instrument profiles your referee brain. It determines how you manage and experience the game.
With this Instrument you will:
- Gain insight into how you should approach your refereeing
- Improve your refereeing
- Understand the individual players better
