English boxing referee suspended after pestering woman for threesome
An England Boxing referee was suspended by the sport after inviting a woman on a course he was running to have a threesome with him. Paul Rosendale, a well-known figure in the amateur sport, admitted pestering the fellow official for sex on social media following a conversation the previous night. Following Rosendale's suspension in March, a disciplinary panel ruled that his actions were 'serious and fundamentally inconsistent with the work of England Boxing in seeking to encourage more females to become involved in boxing, coaching and officiating'. Rosendale, who is in his 40s, had previously been a commended referee, having been nominated for awards for training 'in excess of 80 new and existing officials from the East Midlands, Yorkshire and Royal Air Force associations'. 'In fact, his contribution has led to the RAF Boxing Association having more officials than ever before,' said a 2023 citation for England Boxing official of the year. Rosendale became an IBA three-star referee and judge in November 2022 – the highest certification possible – but he was suspended from duty when authorities were told of his inappropriate conduct. Kathryn Hovington and Mark Harper KC, who sat on a disciplinary panel for England Boxing against Rosendale, suspended him 'for a period of 10 weeks commencing on 14 March 2025'. The panel recorded that following a course in September 2022 and 'following the verbal request', Rosendale made a 'request again for the female official to join a threesome with him' via social media. 'The panel did consider whether Mr Rosendale should be required to attend some form of training as it was concerned that Mr Rosendale was of the view that how a female acts (or is perceived to act) should determine what is/is not appropriate to say/send to her and that the appropriateness or otherwise of communications should be determined by the absence (apparent or otherwise) of offence on the part of the recipient,' their report says. 'Having given it due consideration, the panel was of the view that this would not be necessary as it expected that the experience of dealing with the charges, his remorse and the steps he was taking to address his underlying behaviours coupled with this decision, should be sufficient.'
