Referees to 17 August
Lots of eyes will be on Newlands on Saturday when New Zealand play South Africa.
In Nairobi Eugenia Daniels will referee her first Test. Uniquely, she is the daughter of a Test referee, Eugene Daniels. And in Nairobi Jonathan Kaplan will be refereeing the Elgon Cup match between neighbours Kenya and Uganda.
One of the appointments to a match in South Africa is the Fijian James Bolabiu, a promising young referee and part of the IRB’s programme to provide opportunities of exposure to young referees.
