KY considering creating misdemeanor charge of intimidating a sports official

Supports say the legislation would protect referees from physical confrontations and intimidation.  (WCHS)<p>{/p}

Threatening a sports official could soon become a crime in Kentucky. Lawmakers are considering legislation to create the misdemeanor charge of intimidating a sports official.

The hope is this legislation will alleviate the shortage of referees for sporting events, because the future of high school athletics could be at stake.

"We're down in Kentucky about 25% to 30% of the available pool of officials," reported Julian Tackett, Commissioner of the Kentucky High School Athletic Association.

"We can't cover all of the games that are out there because we have a shortage of officials," said Rep. David Hale, R-Wellington.

Hale says the shortage is due to referees that don't want to deal with threats and intimidation from fans at sporting events.

Josh Hughes is the athletic director at Lewis County High School and has seen officials struggle with confrontations.

"It's getting to a point where people are just not wanting to deal with any of it, with an actual physical confrontation, those types of things are happening more often it seems," Hughes said.

Rep. Hale is sponsoring House Bill 220 which would create the misdemeanor crime of intimidating a sports official. Offenders could face up to a year in jail for threatening to injure a sports official or damage a referee's property or business interests.

"I think it's long overdue. We're getting low on officials and guys are getting out of the game because of intimidation," said Hughes.

Vanceburg Police Chief Joe Billman is also a sports official.

"Parents sometimes are crazy over their kids," Billman said.

Chief Billman said that over the course of his 25 years as a referee, he has been threatened and intimidated, but at sporting events, he has learned to tune out the fans.

"I've had fans come to the floor, and if they come to the floor, that's when they get my attention and that's when I've tossed fans," Billman said.

"I think parents are different, and I think there is this idea that someone is out to cheat you," Hughes said. "I don't know where that came from."

The House Judiciary Committee has sent the legislation to the full House for consideration.

To: <mcandrse@wvstateu.edu>


Since 1909, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has been the primary voice and largest national athletics governance association for four-year colleges and universities in the United States. Following decades of enormous legal fees challenging rules restraining college athlete employment, facing hundreds of concussion-related lawsuits, and then suffering an adverse June 2022 Alston U.S. Supreme Court decision that eviscerated its college athlete eligibility system built on control through use of "amateur status" regulations, the organization appeared to freeze based on fear of future litigation. Within six months, the NCAA convened a "Constitution Committee" and at its January 2022 NCAA convention, members voted to move away from a national governance model of college sports and begin a transition to rule-making and enforcement by competitive division. The result will be a much different competitive and regulatory landscape. For all of us who are committed to continuing the good that college athletics does for athlete personal development and the excitement and pride it brings to campus, community, and alumni, there is a need to understand this new economic and governance structure. Will it be capable of solving issues including, academic integrity, athlete health, safety and well-being, gender inequities and other harms to participants and higher education?
