Etymology

The term 'reffing' is derived from the word 'referee', which originated in the late 19th century in the sporting context. The word 'referee' itself comes from the Middle French term 'refere', which means to refer, as in to submit a dispute to someone for a decision. Over time, as sports became more organized and formal, the role of the referee became more defined, leading to the modern use of 'reffing' as a verb to describe the act of officiating a game. The practice of reffing has evolved with the sports themselves, and today it encompasses a wide range of responsibilities and skills necessary to maintain fair play.
