Kateryna Monzul completes her judicial career

As Sport.ua has learned, Kateryna Monzul will not officiate at the women's football tournament of the 2024 Olympics in France, as previously planned.

According to the source, the Ukrainian decided to say goodbye to her career as a referee for various reasons and associates her future in football with the role of an arbitration observer.

On 25 May, Kateryna Monzul, who heads the UAF Referees Committee, will make her debut as an arbitration observer in the match of the 30th round of the UPL Championship between Obolon and Oleksandriya.

In the short term, Kateryna Monzul will represent Ukraine in this role on the international stage, as her predecessor in the UAF Arbitration Committee, Italian Luciano Luci, has done for many years.

Monzul has been repeatedly recognised as the best referee in Ukraine. In February 2024, she became the chairman of the Arbitration Committee, which had been headed by Italian Luciano Luci since 2015. Kateryna Monzul also joined the new UAF Executive Committee.
