Galway hurlers secure injunction against disciplinary hearings

Three Co Galway hurlers have secured a High Court injunction preventing the county's GAA authorities from taking disciplinary action against them arising out of an alleged assault on a referee.

Lasy year the three, all from the Mullagh club, received 12-week suspensions following a game in last year's Galway senior club championship. Those suspensions were served, however earlier this month they all received notification that the County Board intends to recommence the disciplinary process.
