Abstract

Today, we come across vitamins and minerals are often used as drugs. Our football referees increase their physical load with criteria such as intensive work pace, weekday training, weekend matches and newly introduced FIFA athletic test. In order to keep up with this tempo, they may tend to use vitamins considering that they cannot eat a balanced diet and cannot get enough vitamins. The aim of this study was to determine the use of vitamins in football referees. The universe of this study consists of Football Referees who work in Aksaray, Yozgat, Kayseri and Amasya. The study sample consisted of 24 randomly selected individuals from different provinces. In the study, a questionnaire with 27 questions was used as a data collection tool. The questionnaire consists of 27 questions, 5 of which are demographic characteristics, 13 of which are vitamin use and 9 of which are brand preferences. It was developed by Çoşkun and Ark in 2008 and a validityreliability study was conducted. Reliability Crombach Alpha value was found to be 0.82. As a result, we would like to draw attention to football referees to meet their vitamin needs.
