FIFA refereeing course launches in Kabul with Malaysian instructors

The Afghanistan Football Federation (AFF) is currently hosting a FIFA-sanctioned refereeing course in Kabul, led by three expert instructors from Malaysia. The workshop aims to bring Afghan referees up to speed with the latest international laws of the game and officiating standards.

The program includes practical sessions on the pitch as well as rigorous fitness testing to ensure referees are physically prepared for high-level competition. This initiative focuses on enhancing both the theoretical knowledge and physical readiness of local officials to match global benchmarks.

Supported by the AFF, this training represents a significant step in professionalizing football officiating in the country. The presence of international instructors provides a valuable opportunity for Afghan referees to refine their decision-making skills and improve the quality of matches in domestic leagues.
