During the development of the SCA Men’s and Women’s Club Handball Championships played in Brazil, there was an outstanding work of the refereeing staff composed of delegates and refereeing teams.
In the SCA Handball Tournament for Women’s Clubs, held in San José in the state of Santa Catarina, the delegate staff was composed of:
Teodoro Adjemian (ARG), CoSCABal’s Chief Opener
Rolando Ferres (URU), Luciano Zabala (ARG) and Esilo de Mello (BRA), technical delegates and referee evaluators. Also present were the technical delegates Pablo Martinez (URU) and Marcelo Moraga (CHI).
The refereeing teams that participated in the regional category were:
Talía Romano and Ayelen Mazzieri (ARG)
Guilherme Gonçalvez and Lucas Dezembro (BRA)

Laura Burgos and Valentina Lenzue (URU)
IHF referees were also present:
Germán Araujo and Nicolás Perdomo (URU) and Raymel Reyes and Alexis Zuñiga (CUB) as guest duo.
Throughout the week they had different activities, the regional category referees were evaluated with the possibility of participating in the next courses of the Global Training Project and to be promoted to the IHF category.
In addition, they were given a physical and written test with specific game situations, as well as being shown various game situations in the world and the new IHF guidelines. In general, all the referee pairs were evaluated in each match they officiated and clips were cut with specific moments for decision making and common criteria to be applied in the next matches.
Each delegate evaluator talked with the teams and analyzed the games and provided them with guidelines for future designations.

Teodoro Adjemian (ARG), CoSCABal’s Head of Opening Ceremonies during the last two days.
