Data from over 2,000 matches involving male and female referees across different competition levels revealed that male referees generally face higher physical loads, especially during short bursts of activity. The most demanding conditions for male referees occurred in the Second Division and Champions League, while female referees experienced peak demands in national competitions like the Queen’s Cup. Both groups showed increased intensity during shorter time frames, emphasizing the importance of preparing for brief, high-intensity efforts.
