It's for you if...:

You want to keep on top of referee news
You want your referee questions answered - if you're a new referee, prospective referee or armchair referee
You want to from the best referees in the world or from referees like you with a great story to tell
You want to become a better referee - helping you develop from wherever you are now, to where you want to be in the future.

And we explain why we've called the podcast: Advantage Over
