Actually, soccer officiating requires better conditioning that just about any of the other sports & probably even more snap decision making. ( illegal contact, offside, etc. with 22 players on the field)

Most soccer officials run an average of 4.7 miles on the pitch during a game. The halves are also 45 minutes with no time outs.

Reffing soccer keeps me in shape for doing basketball. Or, is it the other way around??

Fahgeddaboudit?? Only if you can't hack it....
