Judgement reserved in tug of war action

The High Court will rule early next month on an application by the Tug of War's international governing body to dismiss an application brought by an Irish club who claim that they were wrongly disciplined for refusing to compete in an International competition.
The action against The Tug of War International Federation (TWIF), headquartered in Lucerne, Switzerland arises out of decision by St Patrick's tug-of-war club, based in Hackballscross, Louth not to pull because a rival team was wear wearing alleged "illegal" running shoes during the semi finals of the World Indoor Championships in 2006.
