She combines the first in the world of arbitration: the first woman to have refereed a Ligue 1 match for men and the first to referee the final of the Coupe de France, on May 7, between OGC Nice and FC Nantes. In franceinfo junior Thursday April 28, Stéphanie Frappart answers questions from three schoolchildren: Axel, Soline and Naomi, students in CE2-CM2 at the Etienne Dolet school in Alfortville in the Paris region.
To open the show Naomi asks: “Why did you want to be a referee for soccer players?” “What studies do you need to do to be a referee?”, Soline continues. Axel, for his part, wants to know how many matches Stéphanie Frappart has refereed. Naomi again wonders if the referee is stressed “in the field or before going there”. Axel takes the microphone: “Did people ever disagree with you just because you were a woman?” asks the student.
