emitir com o meu método principal no meu jogo connect4

Estou tendo um problema com meu método principal, quando eu executo o código, não é possível compilar devido a este problema: "Exceção no thread" main "java.lang.NullPointerException em UI.ConnectFourFrame.refreshUI (ConnectFourFrame.java:96) na UI .ConnectFourFrame. (ConnectFourFrame.java:43) em main.main (main.java:11) "

Estou tentando ver qual é o problema, mas não consigo descobrir, alguém pode me ajudar
