The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of time-of-day and racial variation on muscle power and fatigue during a 30-s Wingate test. In a randomized order, 36 footballers - 12 black Tunisians (BT), 12 white Tunisians (WT), and 12 South Africans (SA) were asked to perform a 30-s Wingate test during two experimental sessions, which were either at 08:00 or 17:00h. At the beginning of each test session, resting core temperature was recorded. Peak (PP) and mean (MP) power as well as the fatigue index (FI) were calculated during the Wingate test. In all groups, core temperature, PP and MP were significantly higher (p
