The remaining clubs expected to undergo the training are Berekum Chelsea, Bechem United, Dreams FC and Port City FC.

The sessions are being led by GFA Technical Referees Instructors, who are taking participants through the latest amendments to the Laws of the Game for the 2026/27 season.

The training is expected to help players and club officials better understand the rules and support their proper application during the season.

The GFA said the initiative forms part of its wider efforts to promote professionalism, integrity, respect and responsible conduct in Ghanaian football.

It also seeks to improve cooperation between clubs, players and match officials and reduce misunderstandings over refereeing decisions during matches.

The training follows earlier integrity and safeguarding sessions organised for players and officials.

Participants were also required to sign an Integrity Form as a commitment to fair play, ethical conduct and protecting the integrity of Ghanaian football.
