Roscommon CCC recommends 96 week ban for incident involving referee

the referee was taken to hospital after the incident in Ballyforan.

The Roscommon Competitions Control Committee has recommended a 96-week ban for the individual involved in an incident which required a referee to be hospitalised.

The alleged assault happened during an under-17 meeting of St Aidan's and St Dominic's in Ballyforan.

Gardaí launched an investigation into the incident last month with footage appearing to show an official lying on the ground receiving attention.
