Dispute over netball pass

19/04/2008

A BERWICK man has voiced his concern at the behaviour of a security guard working at the Casey-Cardinia netball finals.
John Hompot said he was marched out of Edwin Flack Reserve while watching his daughter play a Mornington Peninsula Nepean Football League (MPNFL) netball match for Berwick.
Mr Hompot said he was pushed and physically ordered out of the venue by a guard because there was an issue with the pass he had been given to get in.
MPNFL general manager Ian Benson said the league had investigated the matter and was satisfied with the response of the security guard.
