Mike Mulroy - Director Europe, Middle East & Asia and Director of Events
Mike has a history of managing and delivering large projects & events from the largest military airshow in the world to rugby tournaments.
Working predominately in rugby, Mike is also an active referee & assistant referee on some of the biggest stages in the world including the World Sevens Series.
Mike is also a Tournament Director for some of the most amazing rugby tournaments anywhere and the Founder of "7s Referee" - why that name? A very frustrated tournament organiser once yelled at a referee manager "All I want is a 7s Referee!!!" So Mike delivered and he has consistently delivered time and time again.
