Liam's efforts have been recognized with several honors

Liam Clayton has had a huge year refereeing for Rugby League. 

He refereed at the Oceania Cup, including the U13 finals between Tahiti and Tonga, as well as at the NZ Secondary Schools Tournament and the NZ Nationals. 

Week in and week out, he’s also been part of the Auckland Rugby League season. 

His efforts have been recognized with several honors: Te Atatū Referee of the Year, NZ Secondary Schools Refs Choice – Referee of the Tournament, Auckland 1st Year Referee of the Year, and U13–U16 Grade Referee of the Year. 

A massive year for a referee who is so young.
