Nigel Owens is well known as one of the best referees in the world of rugby but indeed any sport on this planet. He matches talent, respect from all players with a wicked sense of humour.
He was at it again last night in a Leinster game at the RDS where when accidentally hit on the head by a ball thrown by one of the home ballboys he ‘booked’ the young chap. Laughing he also ushered him into the ‘sin bin’ for 10 minutes.
Following on from the brilliant moment Owens sought the boy out today to send him his jersey as a thank you for taking it so well. What a legend!!!
Thanks all for your help. Have made contact with the ball boy and the jersey will be posted to him asap. Washed of course ????. #rugbyfamily https://t.co/NvGbmzHjRq
