- Comparing the Aerobic Fitness of Professional Male Soccer Players and Soccer Referees(2019) SANTOS-SILVA, Paulo R.; GREVE, Julia M. D'Andrea; PEDRINELLI, Andre; ALMEIDA, Adriano M.; OSORIO, Bruna B.; FERREIRA, Marcelo; FERREIRA, CelsoWe looked to compare the aerobic performance between professional soccer referees and players. Fifty male soccer referees and 61 male soccer players were tested on a treadmill. The referees and players possessed 15 +/- 7 years and 7 +/- 3 years of experience in soccer, respectively. Significant differences were observed between the referees and players with regards to: age (34.8 +/- 4.6 years vs 20.8 +/- 2.7 years; P < 0.001, maximum oxygen uptake (54.7 +/- 5.4 mL center dot kg(-1)center dot min(-1) vs 58.8 +/- 4.4 mL center dot kg(-1)center dot min(-1); P < 0.001), and maximal heart rate in peak exercise (184 +/- 11 bpm vs 192 +/- 9 bpm, P < 0.001). Less significant differences also were observed and included; running speed at the maximum oxygen uptake (16.6 +/- 1 km center dot h(-1) vs 16.4 +/- 1.1 km center dot h(-1)), running speed at the ventilatory threshold (213.5 +/- 1.1 km center dot h(-1) vs 13.2 +/- 0.9 km center dot h(-1)), and percentage of maximal oxygen uptake at the ventilatory threshold (285.1% +/- 3.2% vs 84.1% +/- 6.2%). The effect size of most comparative variables between the two groups was small (<0.6). Older elite-level soccer referees are able to reach and maintain aerobic physical fitness levels similar to professional soccer players. Aerobic physical fitness may be a measurable factor for maintaining elite-level soccer licensure rather than age alone.
