FIFA Elite Referees seminar in Qatar
Referee Victor Gomes has been included on FIFA’s shortlist and invited to a seminar for elite officials next month as the first step towards making the panel for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. He will travel to Doha, Qatar, from 14 to 17 February 2019, along with another five African referees for fitness tests, as well as theoretical sessions and practice with a VAR (video assistant referee) simulator. This seminar falls under FIFA’s preparations for their upcoming football competitions and will be split into two groups. The first group which will consist of CAF, CONCACAF and CONMEBOL, will attend the seminar from 14 to 17 February 2019, while AFC, OFC and UEFA referees’ seminar will take place from 25 February to 1 March 2019.
The 2017/18 PSL Referee of the Season is the only South African to have been selected in the country to form part of the six African referees that are to represent CAF in this upcoming workshop. Other fellow African match officials to attend this workshop alongside Gomes include Mustapha Ghorbal (Algeria), Redouane Jiyed (Morocco), Maguette Ndiaye (Senegal), Ndala Ngambo (DR Congo) and Sadok Selmi (Tunisia). Gomes’s invitation to the course gives him a good chance to make the World Cup‚ even though they are still just under four years away. If he does get to officiate in 2022, he will follow in the footsteps of Ian McLeod‚ in France 1998‚ and Jerome Damon at home in 2010 as the only South Africans to handle matches at the World Cup. Daniel Bennett made the reserve list for the 2014 tournament in Brazil. The 36-year-old Gomes is already on the Confederation of African Football’s (CAF) elite list and handled last year’s CAF Confederation Cup final. He is expected to have a good chance to go all the way at the next Nations Cup and referee the final. The elite seminar does not include assistant referees. Zakhele Siwela was on the panel in Russia last year and would be expected to return again in Qatar in 2022.

Referee Beaton given police escort
Referee John Beaton was given a police escort into Ayr United's Somerset Park after allegedly receiving threatening messages following the Old Firm derby. Beaton was criticized after Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos was not punished for several incidents in the 1-0 win over Celtic at Ibrox last week. Beaton refereed Ayr-Falkirk in the Scottish Championship on Saturday. Scottish FA chief executive Ian Maxwell said "a line has been crossed" and urged "respect" for officials. Police Scotland confirmed "a complaint has been made regarding texts and calls received by a 36-year-old man". With police inquiries "ongoing", Maxwell said: "It is with deep dismay that, in the last 24 hours, we learned of one of our match officials having had threats made against him and his family. We are in close contact with those involved and with Police to ensure they are safe and those responsible are identified and held accountable for their actions."
Beaton was driven to the Ayr-Falkirk game by SFA head of security Peter McLaughlin and escorted into the ground by two police officers and a steward. "This is not the first time in recent weeks that our match officials have been targeted," Maxwell said. "Another referee was allegedly threatened and assaulted at a lower-league game prior to Christmas. These incidents are isolated, but are they are unacceptable and extremely concerning when they occur." Match officials have been criticized by several Premiership clubs this season following high-profile incidents. On Friday, Scottish champions Celtic said Beaton should be allowed to explain his decisions publicly, after no retrospective action was taken when the SFA reviewed incidents in which Morelos appeared to make contact off the ball with Celtic's Scott Brown, Anthony Ralston and Ryan Christie. Celtic also want a meeting with Maxwell, and the SFA said it would be happy to meet with clubs to discuss concerns. Maxwell said: "Our match officials make hundreds of decisions each game. They take huge pride in their work, but it is inevitable and accepted that some of their decisions will be viewed differently and debated by others. When differences of opinion, however, manifest as threats to our officials or their families, a line has been crossed. I call on everyone involved in Scottish football, from the public parks to the international stage, to respect our match officials".

Geiger named PRO Director of Senior Match Officials
The Professional Referee Organization is pleased to announce that Mark Geiger, one of the most heralded U.S. referees over the past two decades, has been appointed as Director of Senior Match Officials. He will oversee the work of officials operating at the Major League Soccer level with immediate effect.
The new role will see the two-time MLS Referee of the Year Geiger retire from refereeing to join PRO’s management team after an illustrious 21-year career that saw him officiate at two FIFA World Cups, three Concacaf Gold Cups and the Olympic Games. As Director of Senior Match Officials, Geiger will lead a team of staff who are responsible for the coaching education and continual improvement of on-field and video match officials who work in MLS. “Having worked games in MLS for 15 years and internationally for 11, I felt it was time for me both personally and professionally to hang up my whistle and boots and start this new chapter,” the New Jersey native said. “I am extremely excited to join a team that is so dedicated and committed to improving the standards of refereeing in North America. I hope that my experiences will help our referees excel and take their individual games to the next level.” Geiger first took charge of an MLS game back in May 2004 when Columbus Crew SC hosted San Jose Earthquakes, and he went on to referee 186 regular season games in MLS, plus showpiece games including the MLS Cup between LA Galaxy and New England Revolution in 2014. That same year he was named as both the Concacaf Referee of the Year and MLS Referee of the Year (for the second time) after appearing at his first World Cup in Brazil, where he became the first American to referee a knockout stage match, as well as being the fourth official for the World Cup semi-final between Brazil and Germany. At last year’s World Cup, he refereed a further three games and had an additional eight assignments as Video Assistant Referee (VAR) or Assistant Video Assistant Referee (AVAR). His final assignment as a center official was an MLS Western Conference Championship Second Leg and he signed off last month as an AVAR at the 2018 FIFA Club World Cup Final in Abu Dhabi.
PRO General Manager Howard Webb added: “I’m delighted to have somebody of Mark’s caliber joining the PRO management team after he decided to call time on a truly wonderful active career. Mark is a man of huge integrity and has enormous pride in the work he does. These are qualities which make him ideal for a senior role in PRO. He has been a trailblazer for American officiating on the international stage and his achievements have helped to raise the credibility of our program globally. The experience and knowledge he has acquired in reaching such a high level will be extremely valuable as we look to continually raise the standard of our officials”.
