After being accused of using offensive language and questioning the integrity of a match official, York Valkyrie captain Sinead Peach is facing a six-game ban.
The incident that occurred on Sunday during York’s Women’s Super League defeat by St Helens sent the England international off.
On September 9th, a tribunal will be held, and if the charge is proven, she will miss the remainder of the regular season and the playoffs.
Chairman Clint Goodchild stated in a statement on Monday that “Sinead expressed genuine remorse immediately for the comment and understands the serious nature of the situation.”
“We will continue to support Sinead as she and the team get ready for the upcoming play-offs.”
