What is more newsworthy than Soccer Mom’s attacking?! Particularly when it involves an 8-year-old son’s game and a 14-year-old girl referee! Outstanding!
…AND baby’s Daddy joined in on the ruckus! AND they’re Canadian. Double Outstanding!! Or is that triple - Mom, Dad, Canadian? Do I have a quadruple? Mom, Dad, Canadian, Ref?!
Apparently baby’s momma didn’t like how baby’s semi-final match was going and took it upon herself to act as judge and jury. This from The Star.com:
The outburst came during the dying moments of a semifinal match of the kids’ tournament, in Diana, Princess of Wales Park near Kingston Rd. and Brock Rd., police said.
A team from Hillcrest had battled a team from Wexford, and were moments away from winning the game when the mother of a Hillcrest player took exception to a call by the teenaged ref.
When the referee’s father tried to intervene to protect her, the woman allegedly punched him in the face, yelling at both of them.
“I was … there watching a game and identified myself and arrested the female for assault,” said Dingwall (by-stander police officer). “She began resisting, pulling away and digging her nails into my hand and her husband … became involved and began pulling me away from his wife …” [SOURCE]
I know. This is all so confusing. I will end this by saying the kids received “participation trophies” after the game was killed. Whew. Nice concession. And I was worried the kids would go home scared through childhood and have nightmares and pee their beds until the age of 18.
