During the recent Euro-Tour event in Treviso, the EPBF has conducted a course for international referees. The course was run by Thomas Overbeck (top left) and assisted by Miha Vovko (lower right). The applicants had to prove their theoretical skills, knowledge, they had to pass a test and work at the Euro-Tour event for individual evaluation. Finally, all ten applicants passed the test and will strengthen the EPBF referee group, entering at „junior level“. The new referees come from Turkey, Croatia, Romania, Austria, Finland, Germany, Slovakia and Bosnia & Hercegovina. They will definitely be an asset to the EPBF in future events.
