Campaign aimed at reducing ref rage

The Gaelic Match Officials Association (GMOA) have released details of their own respect campaign for referees, linesmen and umpires.

Entitled ‘Referees are human too’, the drive is aimed at creating awareness of the plight of GAA match officials.

The unofficial body’s chairman is former Antrim referee Ray Matthews, who quit after he was assaulted during a club game in the county last year.
