Research is required to determine the aspects influencing referee decisions to avoid mistaken decision-making. This research aims to determine the effect of fatigue experienced by referees on decision-making. This research used an experimental method with 16 football referees as the sample. The research instrument was a video test of football referee decision-making from UEFA 2022. The results of this research reveal a significant influence of fatigue experienced by referees on decision-making. Referees' stamina has a significant impact on referees' decision-making.
