RefStuff Ambassadors from around the world

Paul Littlefair

Country: United Kingdom

I am Kev’s long time time friend and business advisor/mentor. We founded Teamtheme coaching academies together in 2001 after starting the company in ‘93, Kev joined me as a sort of apprentice in ‘94. The hand held RefScorer spring form those days when Kev officiated in 100s of games and penalty shoot outs in football and later in dodgeball. The full range of RefStuff has grown from there. My job for RS now is as a team builder ambassador. I will appoint and manage others to achieve brand awareness and ultimately sales. I’m a trained engineer, ex firefighter and a trained business and marketing consultant. Now 54 and semi-retired living between the UK and my home in Spain. I’m currently working for 3 paid clients and also for RefScorer in an advisory unpaid way. I am however, currently chasing 2 large opportunities for the watch with big branded outlets. Jean Curtis and JJ are in my team.

James Jones

Sport: Rugby, referee
Country: Wales

I’ve used the RefScorer Digital watch for a good few months. Proud to be an ambassador and wish I had this during my rugby union career. It’s vibration countdown feature is a great asses when games are intense as that’s a good reminder of time and allows accuracy.
I have used it on some community games as aaa rugby league referee now for scoring however….. it has assisted me massively in game management. WHY you ask….. because with other officials keeping score I use it for penalty count! It gives me accuracy and I know exactly when to have a quiet word with a captain about discipline and also allows me to be consistent in my application of infringements to both teams! A MUST for any referee and a fantastic product!!!

Mitch Das

Sport: Soccer, Referee
Country: Belgium

Hi, I am Mitch Das from Belgium and since 2010, I am a football referee. In 2017 I was part of the first Tournaments Abroad Referee Academy and after that I became a representative for Tournaments Abroad in Belgium. In 2010 I started with my ‘Belgianreferee’ Instagram profile and got in touch with RefScorer shortly afterwards. When I received the Refscorer Digital watch I immediately knew this would help me a lot during my games. It is very easy in keeping the time and the score.
I use the watch and a lot of other products from RefScorer every game I have since I got them. I would recommend the Refscorer Digital watch to all referees because it makes it makes the game easier.

Hi I’m Maarten Kuif from The Hague in The Netherlands. As a referee in korfball, in which there are many goals per match, I had been looking for a watch that is able keep the score, for a long time. And so have many of my fellow korfball referees. The RefScorer Digital is the watch that I had been looking for for years, but even better.
After being one of the first in the Netherlands to discover the RefScorer Digital, I promoted the watch on the Korfball ref Facebook page and helped Kevin to get the watch sold in the official Dutch Korfball referee webshop at korfbaltotaal.nl. It is very good to see more and more korfball referees using the RefScorer Digital.
