A Galway club hurler who lives in the United States has been hit with a proposed 48-week suspension for allegedly not adhering to Covid-19 restrictions when he returned home for a relegation match in early September.
John Moylan, who has commuted from Boston over the past few years to play for his native Beagh, has requested a hearing after the Galway Competition Controls Committee handed down the proposed suspension earlier this month.
The Irish Independent reports that the proposed sanction against Moylan centres around an allegation that he did not quarantine for 14 days after arriving back in Ireland prior to a relegation match last month.
The Beagh club has refused to comment on the incident.
