REFEREE Cameron Worsley will be sidelined until the end of the season – and potentially miss a chunk of the 2026 campaign too – after suffering a serious injury.
Worsley has fully ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) whilst also suffering a tear to the lateral and medial meniscus in his knee.
The 25-year-old, who also works as a PE teacher at Airedale Academy, has been on the RFL’s list of Grade One officials since 2019.
He became the 53rd referee to take charge of a Super League fixture in June when Catalans Dragons hosted Huddersfield Giants in round 16.
A regular in the middle for Championship games, other notable appointments this season have seen Worsley referee the 1895 Cup semi-final between York Knights and Bradford Bulls, and be one of the tough judges in the Challenge Cup semi-final involving Hull KR and Catalans Dragons.
