Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am a Grade 2 referee, who referees the National Conference League matches, as well as officiating as a touch judge for Championship and Super League.

I am going to run between every one of the NCL clubs and their neighbours during my lockdown exercise periods and I am hoping I can attract sponsorship along the way, as well as raising awareness not only of the charity RL Cares, but of the 49 clubs within the flagship League of the Community Game.

I just want people to know that there are Community Rugby League clubs out there who are struggling during the lockdown and that they are a vital part of the community that we cannot afford to lose. 

Hopefully, the clubs and their players will follow my progress and give me some support along the way. I will give mentions to those following me in my progress blogs and hopefully raise some much-needed cash for RLCares.

In total, I am going to run 162 miles, although I won't be putting my followers or indeed myself through the agony of having to run some of the extremely long distances between clubs in the different counties. In essence, I am trying to run as much as I can within the one to two hour exercise periods. Hopefully, it will help me stay fit for when the season resumes, and I can get back into refereeing.

Thank you for your support,

Ellis
