Takis Vasilopoulos, President of the Messinia Football Clubs Association (EPS Messinias), announced goals for the upcoming football season, emphasizing that the championship should be decided solely on the pitch. To ensure fairness and impartiality, the association intends to focus heavily on refereeing to achieve “50-50” matches where results are determined by team performance without external doubt.

Following these objectives, the EPS Messinias Refereeing Committee organized a mandatory seminar for 41 football coaches at the Association’s stadium in Kordia. The session, led by Elias Alexeas, focused on updates to the Laws of the Game and specific instructions provided to referees to prepare participants for the start of the competitive season.
