Overall we had a good night of 6 a side football in Sittingbourne on Sunday, although there were a couple of disappointing incidents to report. It was frustrating that no one from PC Nips Under 11 contacted Head Office to inform us they were unable to attend their game, and we would like to apologise to their opponents Golden Generation, who consequently went without a game.
It was also extremely disappointing to hear of an incident in the game involving Athletic Bilbowls. Ben Sheldon received a red card for foul and abusive language towards the referee, and will now face a £20 fine and three week ban from all Leisure Leagues competition.
Leisure Leagues employs a zero tolerance policy towards aggressive or abusive behaviour at any of the leagues that we operate. Any team or player seen to be displaying this sort of behaviour will receive fines and bans accordingly.
