Schoolboys Referees in the Making


20 schoolboys age, ranging from 12 to 14 years old have been roped in to attend the schoolboy's basic referee's course at FAM House starting 20 - 23 July and 28 - 30 July 2009.


The course includes theory sessions where the boys are introduced to the Laws of the Game through video clippings and practical sessions at the turf.


The course is handled by the Referees Director, Amir Sharifuddin and assisted by Ahmed Abeer Ismail and Ahmed Ameez.


The aim of this course is to produce the future referees of Maldives like the current up and coming referee, Basil Nafees, who is a product of courses of the same nature done years ago. The emphasis for this group of school boys will be to be able to acquire the assistant referee's skill so that they can keep lines during the YDP Festival in August 2009. A few may eventually be motivated to continue and pursue their career in refereeing.


A basic FUTSAL referee course is also scheduled in the evening (4.00 - 6.00 pm) for adults from the 28 July to 2 August 2009 at the FAM House and the Turf Ground. 32 participants have registered to attend this course.
