The decision by Mohamed Raouraoua, the president of the Algerian Federation, to reorganize refereeing in Algerian football comes in response to ongoing criticism from club presidents and supporters regarding the quality of refereeing in the championship. Raouraoua has announced plans to convene a workshop involving all refereeing structures to implement changes for the upcoming season.
One significant aspect of this reorganization may involve attaching the Referee Appointment Commission to the Professional Football League. This move aims to streamline the process of referee selection and appointment, potentially enhancing transparency and accountability in refereeing decisions.
Overall, these reforms signal a commitment to improving the quality and integrity of refereeing in Algerian football, addressing longstanding concerns and ensuring fair competition in the future.
