Ex-NCEL match officials at Vase final
17th May, 2021
Good luck to former Toolstation NCEL match official Hristo Karaivanov who has been named as one of the assistant referees for this Saturday's Buildbase FA Vase Final at Wembley.
Binfield take on Warrington Rylands as part of Non-League Finals Day that also includes the FA Trophy clash between Hereford and AFC Hornchurch.
Hristo, who was a long-serving assistant referee and referee in our competition before his promotion to the EFL, will run the line alongside Wade Smith with John Busby the referee and Sam Purkiss the fourth official.
It is part of a busy week for him as Hristo will also be on the line for Lincoln City and Sunderland's EFL League One play-off semi-final this Wednesday, in recognition of the good season that he has had.
All at the NCEL wish Hristo all the best in his two upcoming appointments and also congratulate Wade and Sam who have officiated matches in our competition.
