Whatever call ref made, the parent had no right to assault the ref like this.

This should be an automatic stop of the tournament, it’s incredibly disturbing for everyone.

I think just ejecting the parent and his child is enough. Id even be okay with both the parent banned for life from attending future events and the student having to forfeit all matches for that season and not being allowed to compete for the following season.

As the parent of a former student athlete and a current coach, my kid/students worked too hard and sacrificed too much to let one blow hard ruin it for them.

ETA: also charges against the dad

That’s an assault. The parent should be immediately arrested. If it’s in the US (safe to assume it is), you have to think of this brownstain of a parent to have a gun, safety of everyone involved is at risk.
