The plaintiff was injured during a soccer game when he was unexpectedly punched by an opposing player after the referee blew the whistle.
The plaintiff sued the opposing player, the soccer clubs, the coach, and the league for negligence.
The soccer club defendants moved for summary judgment to dismiss the action against them.
The court granted the motion, finding that the assault was a sudden, unprovoked, and unforeseeable event, and that the coach and club defendants did not breach their standard of care.
