    RUGBYWA CHAIRMAN RECEIVES QUEEN’S BIRTHDAY HONOUR

    RugbyWA Chairman Dr Russel Perry has been recognised for his services to rugby in this year’s Queen’s Birthday Honours list.

    Dr Perry, who was also recognised for service to the community in urban design, and to the education and training sector, received a Member (AM) in the General Division of the Order of Australia.

    Dr Perry’s contribution to WA rugby spans more than four decades, including a creditable playing career with UWA and representing Western Australia in the early 1970’s.

    He later held posts as President of the WA Rugby Union Referees’ Association, member of the National Referee Coaching Advisory Board, and Secretary/Trustee for the WA Old Golds Rugby Foundation.

    His association with RugbyWA has featured appointments as Chairman of the Judiciary Board (1988-1997), and has sat on the RugbyWA Board as a member (2006-2009) and Deputy Chair (2010) before his appointment as Chairman in 2011. He is also a Life Member of the union.

    “Russel has been an extremely loyal servant to the game of rugby in WA for more than 40 years,” RugbyWA CEO Vern Reid said.

    “This award is much deserved recognition for someone whose commitment to the game has been unwavering and who has done more than his part in promoting rugby in the West.

    “On behalf of everyone involved with RugbyWA, I would like to congratulate Russel on this significant achievement and thank him again for his ongoing support and promotion of rugby.”
