Retd. Col. Goutam Kar, Head of AIFF Referees Department, shared his thoughts on the programme and said, “Footballing knowledge is not the only requisite for a good referee. Being match fit is of great importance. In today’s game a good referee must have knowledge of the game, presence of mind and great fitness levels.”
The course will involve yoga sessions, pool sessions as well as psychological sessions. Match situations and nutrition plans are also to be discussed with the attending referees.
