Elimination of Abuse Towards Referees, Officials and Players in Sport: Discussion
Mr. Dudley Phillips:
The key factor is evidence that is detail-driven in a report. Each match official is assisted, developed and educated about how to write a report around abuse and any on-field matter that needs to be reported to a disciplinary panel. The more detail and evidence a referee can provide, the stronger the case to be dealt with through the disciplinary hearing.
