Hockey Ref Gets Jumped By Coaches During Canadian 10-Year-Old Game (VIDEO)

File this in stuff you don’t see everyday.

A youth hockey ref found himself under attack where reports state a 10 year old slashed him, which caused that ref to respond in a physical manner.

After that happened, two coaches came out onto the ice and attacked that ref.

“This just happened in #Lethbridge tonight. From what I’ve been told it was a 10 year old 3 on 3 tournament where a player slashed a ref. My source tells me the ref responded in a physical way (some are saying self defence) & this happened. Reaching out to organizer for more info”

Soon after, a statement would be released by the organizer:

Earlier today, an altercation occurred at our Quest for the Cup tournament. This incident is receiving significant attention on social media and should serve as an example to all about the importance of ensuring the rink is a safe place for our children.

Actions like this have no place in our game.
The Quest for the Cup tournament is an opportunity for players to enjoy the game of hockey with their friends. For that reason, we are especially disappointed to see an act like this occur.

We are fully cooperating with Lethbridge Police Services as they investigate this incident.
