• Resumen

  • The role of the soccer referee requires a physical preparation and body composition in accordance with the physical demands of the sport. For this reason, just as football is becoming more demanding every day, referees must be able to give answers to them. This study describes the anthropometric profile and the physical condition of Colombian soccer referees to establish training plans with scientific and methodological criteria. For this, 9 soccer referees with 23.3 ±  5.04 years participated, a non-experimental study of a descriptive type with a quantitative approach was selected. Body mass index, percentage of fat mass, muscle mass and physical condition were analyzed with the physical tests proposed by FIFA (6 x 40 m, yo-yo, Coda, 5x30 acceleration and ariet). The results are expressed in mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum values. The findings show a body mass index of 22.19 ±  2.58 for a normal score, the results of the somatochart place the group as meso-endomorphs with a fat mass of 11.8 ±  1.8 and a muscle mass of 38.19 ± 3.06. The physical condition of the referees is in excellent condition, except in the dynamic yo-yo test.
