Referee Assault Could Lead to Prison

CTA president Fran Soto revealed that the organization has submitted a detailed proposal to the Higher Sports Council seeking to increase sanctions against referee aggression. This initiative aims to be incorporated into the ongoing reform of the Law against violence, racism, xenophobia and intolerance in sport.

The proposal comes in response to what Soto described as a "concerning proliferation of violence against referees," with particular emphasis on incidents in youth football leagues. The arbitral body is taking concrete steps to address this growing problem in Spanish sports. h-doctor.club
