League Notes: RFL Club Catalans Dragons Chair Bernard Guasch Fined, Warned

Rugby Football League club Catalans Dragons Chair Bernard Guasch has been fined and warned by the RFL for his public comments criticizing the referee in the "immediate aftermath of his club's 14-12 home defeat by Huddersfield earlier this month." Guasch was fined £1,000 ($1,600) and warned as to his future conduct. He has "14 days in which to appeal the decision at an independent RFL operational rules tribunal" (PA, 7/27). ... UAE endurance riders are "free to compete from Tuesday" with the Int'l Equestrian Federation's (FEI) decision to "lift their national federation's ban." Monthly performance reviews, "the application of rigorous FEI rules at national competitions, attempts to reduce fatalities and respect for mandatory rest periods" are among the conditions negotiated since the UAE was grounded in March after multiple horse-welfare scandals (London TELEGRAPH, 7/27).
