All six referee couples passed the exams, consisting of two theoretical tests, a physical test, an English language test and an analysis of the observations of their performance in the matches of the European Universities Handball Championship.

Consequently, the referees received the badge of Continental EHF Referees, enabling them to officiate matches in EHF competitions, including European Cup and European national team competitions.
