The Football Federation of Turkmenistan Conducts a Training Seminar on Match Commissioning

The Football Federation of Turkmenistan (TFF) continues to conduct a special training seminar that provides the opportunity to serve as match commissioners in national football championships, cup competitions, and youth league matches.

The seminar is being held in the conference hall of the multipurpose “Ashgabat” stadium. Participants include representatives of football clubs at various levels, coaches, football specialists, and candidates who aspire to become match commissioners.

Objectives of the Seminar
During the training, participants become thoroughly familiar—both theoretically and practically—with the duties of a match commissioner. This includes monitoring compliance with match regulations, managing official protocols, and addressing match-related situations from a legal perspective.

The sessions are conducted by experienced experts from TFF. Notably, administrative staff from football clubs are also sharing their practical experiences during the seminar.

Certificates and Opportunities
The seminar, which concludes today—July 16—will award official certificates to successful participants. These certificates, approved by the TFF, will grant them the right to serve as match commissioners in national football events, including:

• The Higher League,

• The Turkmenistan Cup,

• and the Youth League matches.

Future Impact
This initiative is part of the TFF’s broader efforts to improve governance and organizational standards in Turkmen football. Such trainings help raise the qualifications of local specialists and contribute to aligning football management with international standards.
