Women in West Nile Urged to Take Up Football Refereeing

Women across the West Nile sub-region have been challenged to join the refereeing ranks.

This was the bold call as the Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) wrapped up a five-day beginners’ refereeing course for match officials from Zombo, Nebbi, Pakwach and Maracha districts.

The intensive programme drew 33 participants including seven females, featured practical sessions on the pitch, theoretical classes, and written examinations.

It was conducted by FUFA refereeing instructor Immaculate Achiro from the federation’s technical department.

The fresh batch of officials is expected to strengthen refereeing numbers across Regional, Provincial, Zonal, First Division, and Sixth Division matches in the region.
