Erskine to referee All Ireland League Final

There may be no Ulster club team playing in the All Ireland League playoff final this Sunday but there is plenty of Ulster interest in the match official team.  Jonny Erskine (pictured above) will referee the final and will be assisted by Chris Busby and Johnny Peak on the touch lines and Simon McDowell as TMO.  We wish the lads all the very best for the game which will be screened live on RTE television. Congratulations also to Mark Patton who will referee the Division 1B playoff final between UCC and Old Wesley on Saturday. We welcome Andrew Brace and his team of IRFU officials to the Kingspan Stadium on Saturday evening form the Guinness Pro14 quarter final between Ulster and Connacht. Other match officials are: 4th official Oisin Quinn 5th official Dan Carson 6th official Roger Cleave Timekeeper Scotty Rankin The Carrick Sevens also take place this weekend and we wish all officials refereeing at that well. There are several other matches including some friendlies taking place this weekend.
