“The truth is that I am very happy for the year I had. I thank the League for the opportunities we had. In reality, the chance that he gave all of us women. To my companions. She covered the women’s and men’s matches. I also thank the arbitration entities, the CAFUCC. The best was the debut in Primera B. From there it was pure progress. From there, I climbed. It was the best thing that happened to me. The women’s final was what crowned the year,” Colrat commented.

“In that B game we had to overcome nerves and anxiety for the game to go well and cleanly. He wanted to do everything right. It was a sum of things that made that game special. It was the first step to a successful year. It was my first match as head judge. I had several as assistants, but it is not the same responsibility. The rival teams already knew that it was my debut. That helped a lot. They collaborated a lot,” added the judge who also had her first matches in Primera A.

-Do you have to be more severe in matches with men or women?

-In the feminine. In the men’s game, the players are calmer. Because they see a woman and see that the treatment is different. They respect you more. On the other hand, a woman knows that we are all up to the task because we want to continue growing. The treatment is more fluid.

Reasons

“I am a woman, I am not afraid…” says one of the posts on her Instagram. She applied “Flower” to her career, which she began in a particular way. She began to accompany her little son to the games he played in the Cordobesa League. That was just her relationship with football.

-Why are you a judge?

-For my son. She had accompanied him to a game and I saw that there was an assistant judge. She had never seen a woman in football. Until then, football was going to see my son and nothing more. It was not understanding the faults, nothing. I just supported him. My relationship with football was scarce. And from that moment, I informed myself and started taking the referee course. I was able to do it. I made a decision that opened a different world to me.
