Referees Rise in Region Eight | Guyana News

Twenty-three new referees trained in Kato during a two-day workshop hosted by the Guyana Football Federation and North Pakaraima Sports Committee, marking a major leap for refereeing in Region Eight — once home to just two certified officials. Participants studied all 17 Laws of the Game, passed a test, and practiced on-field officiating skills. The initiative, timed with the Region Eight Heritage Playoff Tournament and gearing up for the national Heritage Football Tournament, signals football’s growing grassroots momentum and the Federation’s commitment to building a pipeline of skilled officials across underserved areas. This is more than training — it’s infrastructure building for the sport’s future. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
