Carley is one of England’s leading rugby officials and was the first person to be offered a RFU refereeing scholarship at the University of Gloucestershire, which ran alongside his sports science degree, and the first ever referee in the world to officiate a professional game wearing “RefCam”.

Now with over 100 premiership games under his belt and a regular on the international rugby scene, he is part of the elite group of English referees employed by the RFU.
