Back in January an Under 12 football match had to be stopped due to parents giving abuse to the referee. That referee was 14 year old Connor and he was wearing an armband, which clearly states he is Under 18. Connor was scared and upset but showing maturity, he carried on the game until the end and kept his head held high. Without him there would of been no game. Fast forward to now and Connor’s school held an award evening and he received ‘Young Leaders Award’ as they were made aware of the incident. They said he was a brilliant young man who carried on the game for the younger kids he was reffing and they were so proud how he's carried on his refereeing and not let it effect him. So proud of him . Well Done Connor!
