Westport Ladies Football officials say they have not been told the outcome of a hearing and appeal after one of their players was allegedly racially abused during a Connacht Club Championship match last November. Their player and witnesses subsequently attended a Connacht CODA hearing and a subsequent appeal last week. It is understood that as their club members attended the hearing as witnesses on behalf of Connacht CODA, the club is not considered a named party and, as such, will not receive official confirmation. The club confirmed to the Irish Examiner that they have not been informed of the outcome, despite their members attending both hearings. “The club can confirm that our members attended a CODA hearing in respect of an issue of racial abuse directed at one of our club members,” it stated.
