I dont work with him and have him blacklisted and if I ever have a game with him I turn them back. The fact of the matter remains is that our job is borderline heaven for a pedophile and there isn't much that can be done about that. Unless they have been caught in the past there is nothing stopping them from continually working but I think that many conincedences do add up to something.

Our association - four years ago - initiated backgrounf checks on referee's looking for just such things as previous brush's with the law regarding children and minors.
Any other associations doing the same?
