  • FAQ: Experiments with Video Assistant Referees in Football
    FAQ: Experiments with video assistant referees in football Last update – 22 April 2016 This document provides information on the steps being taken to implement experiments with video assistant referees (VARs) in association football following the historic decision of The International Football Association Board (The IFAB) on 5 March 2016. It will be updated regularly as further details can be confirmed and as the experiments progress. Why did The IFAB decide to allow live video assistance experiments? Following a high number of requests from the global football community and considering further technological advances in the sports industry in recent years, The IFAB agreed in 2014 to analyse how video assistance for match officials could potentially be used in football. Based on discussions with its various bodies as well as initial data collected since 2014, The IFAB, in close partnership with FIFA’s Football Technology Innovation Department drafted a detailed experiment protocol for live video assistance experiments and presented it at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 5 March 2016. The IFAB agreed in principle that video experiments based on the drafted protocol would be the best way to understand the pros and cons of video assistance in full. Who did The IFAB consult before taking this decision? The IFAB consulted with football associations and leagues, particularly those that have made efforts to analyse the various steps and implications of implementing video assistance experiments in a competition, namely the Royal Netherlands Football Association (KNVB) and the USA’s Major League Soccer. The results were presented and discussed by The IFAB and its bodies, including the Technical Advisory Panel (TAP) and the Football Advisory Panel (FAP), the Technical Subcommittee and the Board of Directors.

  • Study on Sports Agents in the European Union
    STUDY ON SPORTS AGENTS IN THE EUROPEAN UNION A study commissioned by the European Commission (Directorate-General for Education and Culture) November 2009 KEA – CDES – EOSE: Study on sports agents in the European Union 2 KEA – CDES – EOSE: Study on sports agents in the European Union EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. Overview of the study In March 2007, the European Parliament invited the European Commission to assist football bodies and organisations in improving the regulations governing sports agents 1. In July 2007, the European Commission indicated in its White Paper on Sport 2 that it would “ carry out an impact assessment to provide a clear overview of the activities of players’ agents in the EU and an evaluation of whether action at EU level is necessary, which will also analyse the different possible options ”. The European Commission’s terms of reference for this study confirm that the European Commission “ wants to have an analysis of the situation regarding sports agents in all the sports they deal with”. The aim of the study is therefore to examine the situation of sports agents in the European Union and to identify, analyse and describe the questions that their activities give rise to as well as the solutions that have already been provided by public and/or private actors, thus enabling the European Commission to assess – on the basis of the data collected, the problems identified and the analyses carried out – whether intervention is required and, if so, at what level and in what form. The study develops, for the first time, a European outlook on the issue of sports agents.
