Tony looks as Arnold and Paul have a little debate

Tony Sharkey leaves for on Tuesday for 10 days to UEFA's Centre of Refereeing Excellence (CORE) in Nylon, Switzerland this shows UEFA's commitment to raising refereeing standards.

Yvan Cornu, CORE's recently appointed manager, is overseeing the referee education scheme together with course leaders Jaap Uilenberg and David Elleray from the UEFA Referees Committee.

The introductory course lasts for two weeks as experienced referee instructors and specialists advise the young match officials – aged between 25 and 30, and considered as showing FIFA badge potential – about match preparation, player management, control of the game, tactical awareness and fitness training. The one-week consolidation course that follows will take place around seven months later.

Practical exercises, mental preparation and the opportunity to officiate at two Swiss or French championship fixtures complete the busy introductory course agenda, which will conclude with each participant setting personal objectives. The referees taking part will already be handling games at national level.

Ross Dunlop (NEURA) will be referee and James Eakin (MURA) are other two officials attending and these three where at Lisburn Distillery against Portadown on Saturday, everyone wishes them all the best in Nylon
