Wireless referee communication system for rugby
Rugby referees need to communicate as directly as possible with the assistant referees to lead the game in the best way.
The distance between the referees and the speed of the game makes it challenging to communicate in the right way.
With a wireless AXIWI® headset communication system for rugby referees, you can communicate fast and directly with your colleague, by which you do not miss anything, and you can lead the game in the best way. The communications system is very affordable: similar referee communication systems are 4 to 5 times more expensive. The AXIWI® radio system has a perfect price/quality ratio.
