I Have been reffing since I've been 14 ( now 22 level 6 going to level 5) and when I was reffing when I was younger I don't remember having any problems with my legs the days following matches that I do now.
For example, on Saturday I had an adult fixture which was a cup game and a good standard. I felt really fit and was able to run freely and without any trouble and I felt reasonably mobile. However might I add I do need to lose some weight to increase my mobility further which I am working towards now.
On Sunday morning I had a game and I felt nowhere near as fit and found it hard to be mobile and quick of the mark consistently throughout the game. Since then my calf muscles especially have been aching heavily all day to the point where I am struggling when I am walking about.
Would appreciate any info/ advice based on any experiences you've had.
