The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) match officials and referees have completed the requisite training and preparation for the three year-end tournaments following several training sessions staged by the Refereeing Department. According to a release, sessions were held at the GFF National Training Centre at Providence with 25 short-listed officials engaged in theoretical training on several topics inclusive of competition rules, and guidelines, alterations to the Laws of the Game and Covid-19 Protocols employed by the Government.
The release added that practical sessions and match based scenarios were also conducted. GFF Executive Committee Member and Head of the Refereeing Department Dion Inniss said, “It is customary for these major tournaments that, prior to the commencement of that tournament, we organise these sessions, so that our referees can become familiar with the competition regulations.”
