FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS - ONE LAST WHISTLE FOR A RUGBY LEGEND
Our very own Nando (aka Ferdinando Dimatteo)
WRFC Vets v East Northants Vets
Friday 20th February 2026
7.30pm kick off
Not just a match
This is a part of history
Nando is:
A Guinness World Record Holder - oldest referee
6000+ miles covered officiating games
Countless seasons, players and refereeing calls,
is hanging up his whistle for the final time.
A club legend. A true servant of our game of rugby. One of our own.
So we're sending him off in style:
