Norway Cup Tightens Referee Controls

After an incident last year that ended up in Norway's legal system, the Norway Cup organizers have enhanced their referee selection process. This year, local associations must not only approve referees but also provide detailed recommendations and answer additional questions about each official.

"The referees are quality-assured better than before," says Tone Lien, daily leader in Bækkelagets Sportsklub and Norway Cup general. The tournament begins this Sunday at Ekebergsletta and surrounding fields. betsport24.es
