The club received the ban following a pitch-side brawl with Dromid Pearses at the All-Ireland Junior semi-final.

The suspension begins after Derrytresk play Galway’s Clonbur in the final on Sunday.

The club are not appealing against any of the seven remaining bans handed out to individual players, according to BBC Sport.

Yesterday, star player Joe McKee’s eight-week ban was overturned.

Suspensions on Kevin Campbell, Michael Robinson, Sean Slater and Brian Gavin were reduced to one month, but the players will still miss Sunday’s Croke Park decider.
