Developing a passion for refereeing at just 14, RJ has quickly established himself as a confident official on the pitch. After initially freezing during his first game when he had to hand out a red card, he regained his composure and embraced the responsibility of his role.
The keen football player started refereeing to become more involved in the game, and his efforts have been recognized by both his school and Somerset FA. While it's unusual for someone his age to referee adult matches, RJ's dedication and discipline have made him a standout example for young officials.
