Four Ghanaian officials begin VAR course in Ivory Coast 

Date:

Four Ghanaian officials are currently participating in a pioneering Video Assistant Referee (VAR) course organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in Abidjan, Cote D’ Ivoire.

The course marked a significant milestone as CAF’s inaugural VAR training session organized for zones, with the WAFU B zone leading the way.

Participants of the training were Rita Ama Nkansah Boateng, Julian Nii Akwa Nunoo, Emmanuella Aglago and Alex Kotey. 

The training also aimed at enhancing the quality of refereeing in the region by equipping officials with the latest VAR techniques and practices. 

It also underscored the GFA’s commitment to advancing football officiating standards and highlights the country’s active role in shaping the future of African football.

As the WAFU B zone pioneers this essential training, it sets a precedent for other zones to follow, ensuring a more consistent and reliable officiating framework across CAF competitions.
