The Confederation of African Football (Caf) is set to host a Video Assistant Referee (VAR) workshop in South Africa from 26 to 30 March.

The workshop will include several referees from around the continent.

The VAR system was first introduced during the Fifa U20 World Cup in South Korea in 2017 and saw great success at the 2018 Fifa World Cup in Russia.

This system, which was designed to assist the referee with decision-making during matches, will now be implemented on the African continent.

Caf has embarked on a mission to ensure that Africa is well-equipped with modern-day football innovations and technology under the new leadership of Caf President Ahmed Ahmed.
