GFA to improve officiating with Referee Assessors, Independent observers
The Ghana FA will introduce Referees Assessors and
Independent observers for the second round of the
2020/21 Ghana Premier League.

According to the Ghana FA this forms part of
efforts to improve officiating and to maintain
sporting integrity.

The FA explained the roles to be undertaken by the
two bodies in a statement.

“As guardians of standards and quality service,
the Referees Assessors are expected to help the
referees to improve and become better”.

“They will also help in the promotion,
development and retention of referees in the
course of the season.

“Independent observers play an important part in
maintaining sporting integrity.

“They are expected to monitor the matches
objectively and submit report to the GFA for
further action if need be”.

This decision was taken by the Executive Council
at its meeting in Accra on Wednesday, February 10,
2021.
