Key Points - Age is not a useful indicator of match performance in soccer referees. - Referees and assistant referees demonstrate distinct activity profiles during matches. - Field protocols designed for soccer referees are not strongly associated with match performance. - Nutritional guidelines are generalized from soccer players to referees; however, bespoke studies regarding nutritional guidelines should be developed for soccer referees.
