WHAT ARE THE REASONS FOR THE START AND PERMANENCE AND THE DIFFICULTIES IN THE ARBITRATION OF THE BOLO-PALMA REFEREES?

Journal Title: MLS Psychology Research - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

The study’s purpose was to determine the reasons why referees of Bolo-Palma (bowling from hereon) decided to take on the job and the reasons they have stayed refereeing, as well as study the characteristics of said bowling referees and the difficulties they encounter during their refereeing work. A questionnaire was applied that had already been used in samples of other sports officials in a sample of 51 bowling referees from different categories, between the ages of 21 and 76 years, and with different years of experience in refereeing. The results suggest that bowling referees have a number of difficulties in performing their arbitration work and that some of them are linked to age and experience; such as the need for good physical preparation, communication skills, mental control, the need for training, knowledge of its regulation, and arbitration as a hobby or for recreation. Other difficulties do not have to do with arbitration and its environment: such as the pressure that players, the public and company directors impose over the referees.
