Bradley Jolly reports:
Judge Michael Stokes QC encouraged Max Whitehouse, 19, to take up the sport after a court heard he was living a “virtual life”.
He said the teen was one of many youths who spent far too much time in front of a computer screen and added: “Well, you need to get out more and live.”
Whitehouse admitted bombarding a gambling channel’s website with traffic so it could not operate.
