Abstract

The objective of this study is to determine the differences in various physical parameters among football referees officiating in different categories. To this end, 30 Elite Level Referees and 30 Provincial Referees actively serving in Istanbul province were included in the study. To assess the physical characteristics of the referees, measurements of height, body weight, and body fat percentage were conducted. The referees participating in the research underwent sprint tests (20 m, 30 m), T-test for agility, and jump tests. These tests were administered over four separate days, with a minimum interval of two days between sessions. In analyzing the obtained data, the independent samples t-test method was employed to determine the differences between sprint, agility, and jump values, with the significance level set at 0.05. Through this study, the speed, agility, and jumping capabilities of Provincial Referees (PR) and Elite Level Referees (ELR) were assessed and compared. The results indicated no significant differences in the speed, agility, and jumping levels between Elite Level Referees and Provincial Referees.
