## Resource

A referee in his fifties was assaulted right after an under-15 GAA match in Clare, sparking outrage and a full police investigation as footage circulates online. The incident, which also left a young player injured, has shaken the local GAA community — with chairman Kieran Keating calling it unacceptable and vowing accountability. The GAA is treating the assault with extreme seriousness, potentially imposing harsh penalties including up to 48 weeks suspension for players and even longer for coaches, doubled for underage offenses. Thankfully, the referee is expected to return to officiating this week — a reminder of the vital role refs play in keeping the game running.
