%X According to May 2019 data, there are about 6750 referees in total taking part in 13 classifications of the Turkish football leagues and about 80 of these referees are female. Only 1.18% of the football referees serving in the Turkish football leagues are female and this reveals the fact that women are inadequately represented within the football world in Turkey. This study aims to address opinions and thoughts based on the professional experience of female referees working under the umbrella of the Turkish Football Federation. The findings indicate that female referees encounter negative experiences in two different ways: ¡°physiological¡± and ¡°sociological/social¡±. Additionally, female referees have positive experiences under the titles of ¡°spirituality¡±, ¡°professional acquisition¡± and "fair-play spirit"
