Trouble erupted at the Junior Club semi-final between Derrytresk and Dromid Pearses at Portlaoise
Dromid Pearses have been handed a three-year ban after violent clashes in the All-Ireland junior club semi-final against Tyrone team Derrytresk.
The Kerry club is banned from all provincial and All-Ireland club ties.
Donal O'Sullivan is banned for three months with Denis O'Sullivan suspended for eight weeks and Colin O'Connor banned for four weeks.
Derrytresk are appealing against their five-year suspension from Ulster and All-Ireland competitions.
The Tyrone side won the game and avoided expulsion from the final, in which they lost by a point to Clonbur.
Seven Derrytresk players missed the Croke Park decider because of individual bans issued as a result of the fighting in the Portlaoise semi-final.
Derrytresk's initial fine of 5,000 euro was reduced to 2,500 euro while Dromid Pearses were fined 2,000 euro.
Pearses have yet to decider if they will appeal against the three-year club ban.
