The Scottish Rugby Union has handed out the heaviest bans in its history over a club’s initiation ceremony after a player was left with internal injuries after reportedly having a bottle inserted into their anus.

Howe of Fife RFC have been given 347 weeks of bans to players, a coach and an official, the longest of which are 84-week suspensions, after an initiation on the team bus following their 71-20 defeat at Jed-Forest.

Governing bodies are looking to clamp down on initiations after reports emerged last month that they are contributing heavily to the loss of more than 10,000 players a year at university level, given that many are put off by the fear of going through initiations.

Two players were arrested after the incident and charged with sexual assault, although the case was settled through an “alternative to prosecution (direct measure)” which ensured it never went to court, with a fine likely to have been paid.

Two official were given 54-week bans each that prevents them “from any involvement in rugby coaching, officiating or administration” for “failing to exercise reasonable and proper control over the players under their supervision”.
