|---|---|---|
| 13/09/2024 | ASA DR104/2024 | The Disciplinary Commissioner finds San Giljan to be in breach of DC-B7 and fines the club €50 in terms of DCB7-03. In terms of the same article, the result of the match is fixed as 5-0 against the club. The Disciplinary Commissioner concluded that San Giljan’s reason for not honouring the fixture was not capricious. Therefore, no ulterior sanctions were required |
| 13/09/2024 | ASA DR103/2024 | The Disciplinary Commissioner finds M’Xlokk to be in breach of DC-B7 and fines the club €50 in terms of DCB7-03. In terms of the same article, the result of the match is fixed as 5-0 against the club. The Disciplinary Commissioner also concluded that M’Xlokk’s reason for “cancelling” the match (“they won the league, and they have celebrations, and we won’t be able to make on time”) was a capricious and a grossly unsporting act that demonstrated disrespect towards their opponents, the ASA Officials as organisers of the competition, and towards the referee who had been appointed for the match and who had already travelled to Gozo when M’Xlokk informed the ASA of their intentions.. The Disciplinary Commissioner, therefore, also finds M’Xlokk to be guilty of three offences as per DC-B1-17, that is, showing disrespect against individuals – Otters’ players, ASA Officials and Match Officials. Disrespect by an affiliated club is not an offence specified in the ASA Disciplinary Code and, therefore, by the application of the provisions of DC-A4(vi), the Disciplinary Commissioner is applying the fines that can be imposed on individuals (not clubs) who are found guilty of showing disrespect. In this respect, M’Xlokk are additionally fined: • €130 for showing disrespect towards their opponent’s players (Q), and • €160 for showing disrespect towards ASA Officials (P), and • €130 for showing disrespect towards the match officials (Q). The Disciplinary Commissioner also censures the ASA General Secretary for failing to provide full disclosure about the case. |
| 13/09/2024 | ASA DR102/2024 | The Disciplinary Commissioner finds Sliema to be in breach of DC-B7 and fines the club €50 in terms of DCB7-03. In terms of the same article, the result of the match is fixed as 5-0 against the club. The Disciplinary Commissioner also concluded that Sliema’s decision not to honour this end of season fixture was not because of unavailable players, but that the decision was a capricious and a grossly unsporting act that demonstrated disrespect towards their opponents, the ASA Officials as organisers of the competition, and towards the referees who had been appointed for the match. The Disciplinary Commissioner, therefore, also finds Sliema to be guilty of three offences as per DC-B1-17, that is, showing disrespect against individuals – Neptunes’ players, ASA Officials and Match Officials. Disrespect by an affiliated club is not an offence specified in the ASA Disciplinary Code and, therefore, by the application of the provisions of DC-A4(vi), the Disciplinary Commissioner is applying the fines that can be imposed on individuals (not clubs) who are found guilty of showing disrespect. In this respect, Sliema are additionally fined: • €130 for showing disrespect towards their opponent’s players (Q), and • €160 for showing disrespect towards ASA Officials (P), and • €130 for showing disrespect towards the match officials (Q). |

| 31/07/2024 | ASA DR85/2024 | the Disciplinary Commissioner finds San Giljan President and Committee Member, Peter Bonavia guilty in terms of DC-B1-17 (P) – A Club Committee member showing disrespect towards the General Secretary of the ASA. Therefore, the Disciplinary Commissioner is fining Peter Bonavia €160 and suspending him from all ASA activities for a period of 2 months, with the suspension coming into effect on 1 August 2024 and terminating on the 30 September 2024. The Disciplinary Commissioner feels that there are special circumstances to the case, namely that, (1) the incident was the result of a series of misunderstandings and miscommunications, and (2) that, as confirmed by the President of the ASA and the ASA General Secretary during the hearing, Peter Bonavia’s presence at the National Pool during San Giljan matches is an important factor in the control of San Giljan supporters. Furthermore, the President of the ASA stated that it was Peter Bonavia’s intervention (in a match played after this incident) that had saved him from what could have resulted in a serious incident. Therefore, the Disciplinary Commissioner is partially suspending the above measures in terms of TOR-25(iv) as follows. The fine remains due. The provisions of DC-A3(iii) (quoted below), defining what a suspension from all ASA activities entails, shall apply in full except that, Peter Bonavia shall not be precluded from entering or approaching the National Pool during matches involving San Giljan in the National Water Polo competitions. Under no circumstances will he go down to the pool deck or any restricted area as defined in the Disciplinary Code. Failure to comply with these provisions will automatically result in the withdrawal of the partial suspension of the disciplinary measures. Further disciplinary action may be initiated by the ASA |

Zac Cutajar Licari (Neptunes) is also found guilty in terms of DC-B1-15(Q) for passing remarks using vulgar or unacceptable language at the referee and fined a further €100.

| 30/04/2024 | ASA DR48/2024 | Decision 1: Mattias Bonnici (Otters) guilty in terms of DC-B1-08(K) and suspended for 1 Winter League match and fined €195. |
| 30/04/2024 | ASA DR47/2024 | Decision 1: Sirens submitted a contestation in connection with the report. However, this contestation was not submitted as per TOR-22(i)(e) - it was received by the General Secretary after 09:00 of the day after the match in question. Therefore, the Disciplinary Commissioner declared the contestation null and proceeded to decide on the report as an uncontested Match Card report. The DC viewed the incident on the official video of the match that was provided as evidence by the ASA. From the video, it appeared that the player did not throw the ball in anger at the referee, especially if one considers that (i) the player had no reason to protest at that point in time (ii) the trajectory of the ball was parabolic and (iii) the ball was passed to the referee from, at least, 15-20m away and therefore, some force was essential. Therefore, Peter Borg (Sirens) is not found guilty of any offence. |

| 01/11/2023 | ASA DR98/2023 | the Disciplinary Commissioner concluded that Ella Fenech Attard has been living and training abroad for at least 8 weeks and, therefore, for the scope of the ASA Swimming Competition Rules, she is to be considered as a "Swimmer Residing and Training Overseas" and so her behaviour falls under SCR-41 and not SCR-42. Whereas SCR-41 deals specifically with swimmers' relationships with the National Coach, Ella Fenech Attard is not a National Team Swimmer and does not train with the National Coach. Therefore, the Disciplinary Commissioner decides that Ella Fenech Attard has not breached the provisions of SCR-42. The Disciplinary Commissioner also decides that Ella Fenech Attard is guilty of unethical behaviour because she participated in an international event as an athlete of "Malta" without authorisation or permission. Since this offence is not contemplated in the ASA Disciplinary Code, and since the swimmer cannot be fined because of her age, the Disciplinary Commissioner suspends Ella Fenech Attard from the next Age-Group Swimming meeting and severely reprimands her in terms of DC-A4 (vi). |

| 8/31/2021 | ASA DR31/2021 | After hearing the submissions of both parties and all the witnesses, Mr Sandro Pecorella, the Disciplinary Commissioner concludes as follows:- Mr Rainer Scerri, after having been escorted from the pool deck by two ASA Officials (Carlo Mifsud and Karl Galea) did not leave the precincts of the pool as he was obliged to do. The fact that Mr Matthew Bonello exited from the stands and walked towards the Reception Area without feeling threatened in any way by the opposing club’s committee members, proves that at no point in time was Mr Rainer Scerri in any personal danger. From the video evidence produced Mr Rainer Scerri’s unacceptable actions and verbal threats towards Mr Carlo Mifsud outside the Reception/Entrance Door were very clear, so much so that even his Club President, Mr Matthew Bonello, had to restrain him from aggravating his own and his club’s position. In view of the above, Mr Rainer Scerri is found guilty in terms of DC-B1-13 (O) and fined €240 and suspended for 3 Senior matches. Mr Scerri is also found guilty in terms of DC-B1-18-A (R) and fined a further €190 and suspended for an additional 2 Senior matches. Since Mr Scerri did not leave the precincts of the pool, these sanctions are doubled in terms of DC-A4.xi. Mr Scerri is therefore fined a total of €860 and suspended for 10 Senior matches. The Disciplinary Commissioner also finds Rainer Scerri to be a repeat offender in terms of DC-A5 and fines him an additional €100. The contestation deposit shall be forfeited in favour of the ASA. |
