The Local Referee Organization for Montana, Northern Idaho, and Eastern Washington
Michael "Tex" Gillette, Brian Briske, and George Mullen served as part of the the referee pool for the Great Northwest Challenge in Corvallis, Oregon 25-26 June 2015. The GNWC is the regional all star tournament for the western United States and a gateway for players and referees to be seen by national coaches.
Montana youth rugby has grown by leaps and bounds. As a result, it comes as no surprise that Montana's referees have been getting younger and younger. The latest is Tucker Nadeau from Kalispell.
Shown here with MRRS President George Mullen, center refereed a Junior High Match in Missoula on April 22, 2016. When not refereeing, Nadeau is a high school sophomore and player for the Kalispell Black and Blue rugby team.
