Football NT still waits on submissions from two Division 1 clubs over alleged incident at Marrara on June 26

Football NT could hand down penalties to two Division 1 clubs as early as next week as the league investigates an alleged incident involving multiple scuffles after a match in late June.

FOOTBALL NT could hand down “potential sanctions” as early as next week following an alleged post-match incident involving several women at Marrara, the league has confirmed.

Two clubs have been drawn into a league investigation after the incident following a Division 1 women’s premier league match between Port Darwin and Hellenic on June 26.

Eyewitnesses described the situation as a “big mess” with multiple scuffles breaking out after the game.

Several people told the NT News three women allegedly attacked a fourth in the carpark, tearing off her head covering and ripping her dress down to her bra.

Similar accounts have been posted to social media pages, suggesting a second person was also targeted.

On Wednesday, a league spokesman said both clubs had to provide “their version of events” by close of business.

“Interviews will be conducted later this week with potential sanctions to be handed down later next week,” the spokesman said.

“There are no other updates at this point. We’re waiting on all submissions to come in before we conduct interviews.”
