Tanzania’s first division league has reached a historic milestone with the launch of the fifth phase of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) training program.
Designed for match officials, this intensive training program prepares referees for the imminent rollout of this technology on soccer fields across the country.
The main objective of this phase is to equip referees with all the technical and theoretical skills necessary for the seamless use of the system.
The sessions focus on mastering international protocols, managing review time, and ensuring the accuracy of decisions in real-game situations.
This initiative represents a major step forward in raising the standard of the Tanzanian league and reducing refereeing errors during key matches.
By modernizing its refereeing, Tanzanian soccer aims to enhance transparency on the field and align with the continent’s highest standards.
