Win The Ultimate Investec Super Rugby Referee Training Experience

Specsavers are offering one lucky rugby team the chance to learn from the best in the game

With thousands of local rugby clubs and school teams taking to frosty fields across the country this winter, Specsavers would like to reward one lucky team with the Ultimate Specsavers Investec Super Rugby Referee Training Session.

New Zealand Rugby’s High Performance referees have an even sharper eye on the action this season, thanks to a three-year partnership with Specsavers. Now, Specsavers is looking for a school team or rugby club worthy to take away $1,000 cash, Super Rugby Referee jerseys, free eye examinations for each team member, and a training session with an Investec Super Rugby Referee.

“Investec Super Rugby referees are highly trained, and it’s their job to ensure that the right decisions are made during a game – which is no easy feat. This is a great opportunity for them to pass on some of their wisdom to players, coaches, and referees at a local level,” says Rod Hill, High Performance Referee Manager.

Specsavers is committed to looking after the eye health of not only rugby referees, but all Kiwis, which is why the prize includes a comprehensive eye examination for each member of the winning team, plus prescription glasses for those that need them.

Brendan Thompson, Specsavers New Zealand retail director, says “We’re really proud to be able to offer this fantastic prize in partnership with New Zealand Rugby and encourage all local rugby teams to enter the competition. It really is a unique opportunity to be trained by a professional Investec Super Rugby referee who knows the game inside and out.

“Referees and rugby players need good eyesight in order to make the right calls under high speed and pressure. This ultimate training session reminds the sporting community of the importance of not just physical training, but also regular health check-ups, such as getting your eyes tested, to ensure you are always at the very top of your game.”

The winning team will receive:

• An exclusive training session with an Investec Super Rugby referee

• $1,000 cash prize for the team

• A comprehensive eye examination at Specsavers with a free pair of prescription glasses for each team member who requires them

• An Investec Super Rugby referee jersey for each team member
