Rugby Ref Notes: Match Timer

Swap the paper referee card and stopwatch for the phone in your pocket. Rugby Ref Notes is a match-day app built for rugby union referees. Run the match clock and time off, track sin bins, and record cards, penalties, scores and replacements from one screen. When the final whistle goes, everything is tidied into a match report. Made for club, university and school referees, referees in training and anyone running community matches. ■ A match clock you can read at a glance • Huge clock digits and a big time off / time on button • Once the half is up, overtime is shown (+01:23) with a "finish at the next dead ball" banner • Total time off, count-up or count-down display • The clock stays accurate with the screen off or while you use other apps • Check the clock and toggle time off from the lock-screen notification ■ Sin-bin and temporary replacement timers • Recording a yellow card starts the sin-bin timer automatically • Runs on match time, so it pauses during time off and half time • Vibration alerts one minute before and at the end (different patterns for home and away) • Blood and HIA timers with return or switch to permanent replacement • 20-minute red card mode ■ Record anything in three taps • Card: team, player number, yellow or red, reason (optional) • Penalty: team, infringement chip, sanction (penalty, free kick or scrum), number and zone (optional) • Scoring: try, conversion, penalty goal, drop goal, penalty try • Replacement: off number, on number, tactical, blood or HIA • Conversion shot clock after a try, penalty goal shot clock • Undo any entry within 5 seconds, edit or delete from the timeline ■ Smart prompts during the match • A second yellow for the same player asks whether to record a red card • Team warning hint when a side racks up penalties in a half • Replacement limit warning (you can still record it at your discretion) • Sin-binned, sent-off and replaced players are dimmed on the number pad ■ Presets for every format • Fifteens, tens and sevens defaults plus custom settings • Adjust half length, half time, sin-bin time, replacements and kick time limits per match • Extra time and sudden death options • Team sheets need only shirt numbers, names are optional ■ Half time and match report • Half-time countdown with a summary: penalties per team, top 3 infringements, cards and replacements • Post-match report: timeline, scoring, cards, replacements and a penalties-by-infringement chart • Share the report as an image or text ■ Referee reference cards • Summaries of offside, breakdown, tackle, scrum, lineout and maul infringements with default sanctions • Format rules at a glance, scoring table and card rules • Pre-match, half-time and post-match checklists ■ Designed for the touchline • Big buttons that work with gloves or wet hands • Keeps the screen on during a match, light and dark themes • No ads on the live match screens • Optional daily reminder at a time you choose ■ No sign-up, stays on your device All records are stored only on your device.
