From Alberta to Paris: An assistant referee's journey
Jul 05, 2024 Season 2 Episode 22

This week we interview Mike Barwegan, who is a FIFA match official who has been appointed to referee at the Paris Olympics. We talk about how he got into officiating, what a typical road trip looks like and how if feels to be going to the Olympics.

We review Cavalry FC's loss vs Halifax last weekend and preview their match vs Valour in Winnipeg. Lots of roster talk with injuries, departures and the tease of a new signing.

Foothills WFC plays on Saturday afternoon vs FC Arizona. Are there any players on the club that are really showcasing themselves for next year and the NSL?

The League One Alberta season is hitting the home stretch and we chat a bit about this week's matches.
