Kevin Wright played amateur football until he was 25 and decided to become a referee when he broke his wrist for the fifth time and felt it wouldn’t stand up to any further physical football challenges.
He joined the National list of Referees in 2003 and took charge of his first match on 9/8/03 when Southend beat Cheltenham 2-0.
His last match was a Notts County 2-1 win over Sheffield United on 11 January. His last Coventry was the 3-0 home win over non-league Arlesey on 3 November 2012
