LiveU has announced a landmark technology deployment with the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) that has introduced Video Assistant Refereeing (VAR) to the Pacific Islands for the first time. For years, the OFC remained the only FIFA confederation operating entirely without VAR due to severe logistical hurdles, including recurrent customs delays for heavy freight at island ports and a lack of high-capacity fiber infrastructure across nations like Fiji, Samoa, and Tahiti. When VAR was mandated for the newly launched OFC Pro League, LiveU developed a lightweight, remote alternative that made implementation viable.
