  1. If I checked correctly we have all Elite and Category 1 referees, as it was for previous Summer courses, unless the Russians (nothing new) and Frappart who is still listed among Men's Category 1 officials.
    29 Elite + 56 Cat. 1

    1. I’m impressed by the huge number of attendees; are assistant invited too? Has Uefa headquarter ao many chambers and places to host so many people? Next time I suggest to go there also ourselves 😄😄

    2. Yes, you must always ask: "Where would the ball have ended up without the touch of the arm?" In this case, it woudl have passed, so it was increasing body's volume.
