Thomas Bramall (born 1990) is an English football referee who primarily officiates in the Premier League, having been promoted to Select Group One in 2022.[1][2] He is a member of the Sheffield & Hallamshire County Football Association.[3]
Early life
[edit | edit source]Bramall was born in Sheffield, South Yorkshire in 1990. Prior to becoming a professional referee, he worked as a PE teacher in Rotherham, and as a mathematics teacher at Outwood Academy Valley in Worksop.[4]
Career
[edit | edit source]In 2022, Bramall left education and became a full-time referee. He was initially promoted to the National List, allowing him to take charge of English Football League matches, ahead of the 2018–19 season.[3] In the summer of 2019, he sustained an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, which side-lined him from officiating until February 2020.[5]
Ahead of the 2021–22 season, Bramall was promoted to Select Group Two, a group of referees who primarily officiate in the EFL Championship, following his competition debut overseeing a match between Preston North End and Luton Town in March.[6][7] His first Wembley appearance was on 22 May 2022, when he took charge of the 2022 FA Trophy final, between Wrexham and Bromley.[8] He made his Premier League debut on 30 August 2022 when he refereed Fulham's home fixture against Brighton and Hove Albion.[9]
