Uefa launches a Refereeing Assistance Programme twice a year. It contains clips of recent match situations. You can install this on your pc or mac and train your refereeing knowledge. In case you missed it, it’s quite interesting material to develop yourself.
Refereeing Assistance Programmes 2020:2
The RAP is shared by Uefa again and the link circulates online. Download your copy of the 2020:2 version.
Note: to use the 2020:2 or 2020:1 version you need the Mulppy App (pay for download). It depends on your own laptop quality and restrictions, so download and pay at own risk.

Refereeing Assistance Programmes 2020:1
The Uefa has released the Refereeing Assistance Programmes 2020:1. And now it’s been shared at summer courses, whether online or at FA headquarters, I share a link I’ve seen online too. Download the 2020:1 version (for both Mac and pc).

How the RAP works
You can watch video’s in different categories, but will not see the correct call immediately. Make sure you think for yourself what decision you will make. Then you can click at the right bottom text, which gives you an explanation.
Good luck and enjoy!

This is awesome tool to train for match situations.
Thank you Jan!
Good to hear you like it. I might be able to provide you with the 2017 version soon.
Good job sir
Great stuff!
Thank you.
Bom trabalho.aprecio muito o seu trabalho do ponto de vista pedagogico.

Thanks for your kind words!
Good stuff sir
Thanks. Will try to keep posting new programmes when available.
Thank you so much for this, it is brilliant. Can’t wait until you upload the UEFA 2017 (2)! Looking forward to more SPA examples and the new interpretation.
Will be there soon. Bit too busy, but it’s getting there.
Excelente tu material didáctico, lo estoy utilizando en mis programas en México para preparar mejores árbitros, saludos cordiales…
It’s indeed quite good education material. Enjoy it!
Anyone having issues with the MAC version of RAP_2017_2?
***“UEFA_2017_2” can’t be opened. You should eject the disk image***
No Mac for me. It’s the original file/folder btw. Not sure why that fails. Or it is because you have the newest Mac version.
I too had the same error for the Mac version.

Remember that the files are a few gigabytes. Did you download it on pc or mobile? Pc or Mac works the best, but you still need a lot of space available.
UEFA RAP 2018. 1 ?
Not yet available, but will ask around.
uefa rap 2018 1 ?
It will be here soon. Just got it and had a problem with the hard drive. Stay tuned!
PC version of 2018-1 doesn’t seem to work for me
These are the original links from Uefa. What issues do you have?
Amazing Work Jan!! Thank You 🙂
Thanks for the 2018 update.
The one thing that I really noticed was how many of the challenges in the SPA/DOGSO category that UEFA wants given as yellow cards where the ref only gave a foul. After watching an entire World Cup where clear SPA offenses were simply given as fouls, I’m surprised to see UEFA take this line in their videos. It’s my personal opinion that the top level should have way more SPA yellows given and I can only hope this is a hint that UEFA agrees for the upcoming season. I won’t hold my breath though.
very interesting.
Bravo for your contribute.
It’s possible to have in french?
This is the release by Uefa. Don’t know if they make it in other languages.
Great Job Jan. It’s helping us here in Africa
Really Grateful to U Me. Jan. This is such a significant one to improve Refereeing Skills & knowledge.
Hello, How do I switch on to see the explanation?
Hi David, at the right bottom is in some versions a button with “video info”. That gives you a pop-up screen with the explanation/verdict by Uefa.
Great stuff!

since july i have been trying to download the 2018 UEFA 2018-1 PC version…any help
If you click the right link you should go to a WeTransfer. But be aware the file is 10 gigabyte and that is quite a lot.
Thanks a lot for your job. Do you have any idea about the date of issue of 2018-2?
No news on that yet. Will ask around.
is it possible to use the program on a tablet?
The size of the program is a few GB. Not all tablets would have enough space. And I haven’t tried installing it there.

Hi there – I downloaded 2019-01 for Mojave, but there is no included PDF or any way to begin the app to review the materials? It’s just the media folder. Thanks!
Hi Scott, the pdf with info is on the blog page where you can download all materials (so above all these comments), not in the zip file.
Hey
Ik heb al enkele keren ‘Uefa 2019:1 RAP for MAC’ proberen downloaden maar telkens krijg ik maar een deel van de inhoud: enkel de ‘antwoorden’ en niet de filmpjes en heel het programma zeg maar.
Met enkel de antwoorden ben ik natuurlijk niets. Kan u mij helpen?

Hi
I tried to download ‘Uefa 2019:1 RAP for MAC’ for several times but it doesn’t download the whole content. I only get the answer-images and not the videos and the whole ‘program”…
Can you help me with this?
Kind regards

Ben net terug van vakantie. OP https://www.dutchreferee.com/refereeing-assistance-programme/ staat ook een pdf (even scrollen) en daarin staan wat oplossingen voor het MAC-probleem. Zelf een Windows-gebruiker, dus kan niet uit ervaring spreken.
Hi
Is the “Refereeing Assistance Programme 2019:1” in accordance with the new Laws of the Game 2019-2020? I mean, I do not want to start looking on a learning material which is out of date.
Thanks for sharing 🙂
All the best.
The RAP is issued in June, which is after the deadline for the new LOTG. So based on that I’d say: yes, it’s in accordance. Plus: most clips are not about the (minor) changes, but how to judge tackles, teamwork, offside etc. So you’ll also benefit from that, even in the previous editions.
Hi Jan,
It is very good material but I will be cautious and will not be using it as much as the previous season.
Incidents that are yellow cards for UEFA at my level (Supply League in England) they are expected to be red.
Management, offside and other situations are really good to watch.
How is that for the 2019:2 version?

Have you checked the pdf for MAC users? See page. What also works for some refs is downloading the file on a Windows pc and then use an usb to get it on the MAC.
HELLO JAN, WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE Refereeing Assistance Program 2019: 2

Very thanks indeed for UEFA RAP 2019.2

Enjoy, Claudio. Let me know what you think of the situations.

Hello there
Its not working for me. I have the latest mac verion (catalina 10,15). I tried to copy it from a Windows Pc but there is no programm either.
I need some help! Thank you very mutch!
Tried both versions of the programme? And does it work for previous editions. I am not a Mac user myself, so can’t test. But FYI: these are the original UEFA links, so they normally should work. properly.
Dear Maurus,
Due to some problems to watch UEFA presentations on Macs with the Catalina operative System, LabHipermedia has lunched a new App, Mulppy, that solves this problem.
You must open the new presentations with this application that can be downloaded in the Apple Store.
https://apps.apple.com/es/app/mulppy/id1486573159?mt=12&ign-mpt=uo%3D2
Then, you need to download the project whit the new multimedia format:

Many thanks
Hi Andrew,
Not as far as I know. Never heard anyone about that.
Hey Jan,
Can it be downloaded to iPad?
Don’t know about the iPad, only that it works with an app for Mac.
hello Jan

Hi Jan
Thanks a lot for your great effort.

Thanks in advance.

Mr. Jan ter Harmsel ..Hi, I’m from turkey Mustafa Erdoğan. I work as a referee observer in Turkey. I have benefited greatly from your videos. Do not doubt that I will be a big follower from now on. Thanks.
Excellent materials Mr Jan, and you are doing great job interms of ensuring we develop the refereeing department all over the world. Keep on doing the job.
I am very disappointed by those from FIFA because it forces us to use this application, an application that requires the following requirements Minimum
Your device must meet all minimum requirements to open this product
OS Xbox One, Windows 10 version 10240.0 or higher
Architecture: x64,x86
Keyboard: Integrated Keyboard
Mouse: Integrated Mouse
Memory: 6 GB
Video Memory: 4 GB
In my situation, I need to improve my computer with video memory.
I paid to download the application and no one gives you your money back.
So what are we doing? do we invest in having high-performance computers to be able to continue learning from FIFA videos?
It is from Uefa btw. As mentioned in the blog is good video memory important. That’s what you need to play video’s anyways. I hope you can find a solution.
