In an unfortunate incident yesterday during the Encounter Bay V Mt Compass Senior Colts game at Encounter Bay where three players from both teams were reported the umpires determined that the game would be forfeited in favour of Mt Compass.
The Encounter Bay Football Club deeply regrets being involved in the incident and has determined that the major offending player will be eliminated from the Club. He will no longer play or take any part in any Club activities now or in the future.
The Club also apologises profusely to the Mt Compass Football Club, its players, Officials, and Supporters for this conduct.
Our sincere apologies must go to the two field umpires and of course our utmost apology to the Umpire that was targeted. They can be assured that this behaviour will not be condoned or tolerated at the Encounter Bay Football Club.
Please accept this as our apology at a Club level.
Richard Littlely
