Druskininkai, LTU (26 August) – The Lithuanian Wrestling Federation organized an Introduction to Referee Course (Level 1) from 14-16 August.  The course was done in conjunction with United World Wrestling and was held before the start of the Druskininkai Cup. The course was led by UWW Certified Educators Ms. Edit DOZSA (ITA). 

There were 11 referees that participated in the course. During the 3-day course, the participants had theoretical and practical sessions to improve their knowledge and skills as referees.  Some of the topics covered were terminology for referees, referee team duties, evaluation of holds, and athlete safeguarding. “Despite some difficulty in language, all the participants finished the course with a renewed knowledge base," said Dozsa. "It was great to work with the referees during the course.”
