China has opened a five-day retraining camp for over 200 football officials in the aftermath of match-fixing scandals, the Beijing Youth Daily reported.

Last year China began a campaign to fight corruption in football after referees were found to have taken bribes to fix matches.

Chinese Football Association (CFA) head Wei Di said that the retraining of referees is an important part of the ongoing anti-corruption campaign.

He also advised referees who have taken bribes to confess and return the money.
