FIFA referees Clayton Pisani and Alan Mario Sant are currently taking part in a seminar for football officials, organised by the Bulgarian Football Union, in Sliven.

The guest foreign lecturers are UEFA Referees Committee member David Elleray, and MFA Director of Refereeing Adrian D. Casha.

Among the topics being discussed are the referee’s action in situations of players mobbing, different cases of offside and the use of radio-communications in decision-making.

A practical session on the field of play will be held today and the session tomorrow is reserved for fitness tests... no easy task considering the very low temperatures and the fact that this season the Bulgarian Football Union has set higher standards than the minimum accepted by UEFA and FIFA.
