| Any player awarded a Red card for serious misconduct (fighting, shoving, wrestling etc.), or receives a second red card during the season, may be ejected from the league. The organizing committee and Team Captains will make this decision with input from the referee. The player will not be allowed to resume play in league games until the committee reaches a decision. Each team will have one vote when making this decision. Only captains may initiate discussion with the referee regarding calls made on the field. Referees are being asked to keep tight control of the games, and will not tolerate verbal abuse from players. A third yellow card for any player during the course of this season will result in a one game suspension the following week. The player will be allowed to continue playing the game in which the yellow card is received, unless an additional card is received. Any use of a player not registered in WBAS will result in a loss for that team and a corresponding change in the standings. Effective with the Spring 2002 season, it is each captain's responsibility to insure that team members participating in playoff games have played in at least 2 regular season games for the associated season playoffs. A player is ineligible to participate in playoffs if the required minimum of two games is not met. Effective with the Spring 2003 season, players must sub at mid-field and be within 10 yards of the touchline before substituting player enters the field of play. Captains must inform players of this rule and enforce. Substitutions may be made on the fly. Foul Language will not be permitted on the field, or from the touchline. Referees will issue a warning to an offending player. Second violation will result in a yellow card. All players participating in the WBAS league agree to follow league rules and abide by the decisions made by the league organizing committee. |
