Iron-fisted referring

Down below is an article about NBA's "Zero-Tolerance" policy.

..........

Since the adoption of this rule, the number of excessive gestures and curses from players that often led to major fights have decreased. But before this era of iron-fisted referring, physical contact and confrontations that lead to brawls were not uncommon.

.......

May I ask what "referring" means here? Thanks.
