Women’s Euro 2025 referees: Will there be VAR?
Just as it was used at Euro 2022 and the World Cup in 2023, VAR will be in use this summer in Switzerland.
Each of the 31 matches being played will have four officials involved. One referee, two assistant referees and a VAR official.
The refereeing standard at major tournaments has been good and the efficiency of the use of VAR, particularly at the last World Cup, has been praised.
The officials are set to be a part of the biggest women’s Euros to date with the interest in the game growing year-on-year.
England’s win in 2022 made them household names and the Women’s Super League as a result has seen an influx of fans watching games.
In FourFourTwo’s view this summer’s tournament will once again be groundbreaking, especially for the WSL if England go far in the tournament.
And as the interest increases in the women’s game, the level of refereeing has also improved.
UEFA’s managing director for refereeing, Roberto Rosetti, said: “As we prepare for UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 in Switzerland, we are extremely pleased to see the continuous growth of our top female referees, reflecting the remarkable development of women’s football as a whole.
“As always for a Euros, the best and most consistent referees have been selected. Notably, all of them have passed the same fitness test we conduct for the elite men’s referees.
“We have full confidence in them and their assistants, as well as the video officials, to show their quality at the final tournament.”
