Charlotte Mudoola went one step better from her international officiating debut where she run touch for Zambian referee Chris Mwamba during last month's men's international fixture between Uganda and Kenya at Kyadondo Rugby Club.
While 44th ranked Uganda made history at Kampala Rugby Club on 23rd June by beating Namibia who are 24th in the IRb world rankings, Charlotte Mudoola was creating history of her own. Centre referee Mark Lawrence from South Africa presented Charlotte with a rare chance to run touch when he collided with a Namibian player in the first half sustaining a deep gash on his head. Although he was temporarily patched up and he continued refereeing until the end of the first half the cut was serious and required stitches so at the half time break he handed over to one of his fellow touch judges from South Africa. Luckily enough, Charlotte was on standby and the second half saw her running touch in her second IRB sanctioned men's international.
Well done Charlotte!!!
