The match officials selected for UEFA Euro 2012 will meet in Warsaw on 2 May for an open training session, press conference and interview sessions. The media day forms part of a workshop for referees, assistant referees, additional assistant referees and fourth officials which is taking place from 30 April to 3 May 2012 in the Polish capital in preparation for the UEFA European Championship in June. Each of the 31 games in Poland and Ukraine will be handled by a full team of seven match officials, with the referee, two assistant referees and the fourth official being supplemented by two additional assistant referees as well as a reserve assistant referee. On 2 May cameramen and photographers will be able to attend the first 20 minutes of a training session at the Agrykola Stadium (ul.
