The UEFA referees committee conducted a series of intermediate seminars and fitness tests for referees throughout the season in October and April. Specifically, similar events have already taken place for UPL referees, the Ukrainian U-19 championship, the National Football Referees School, and the first and second leagues of the PFL. The program for these seminars included physical readiness testing according to FIFA standards and theoretical preparation. It should be noted that all referees successfully passed all checks.
