How do Card Points Work? (new in 2008)


Regular Season Penalty Card Player Misconduct Rule. Points for yellow and red cards shall accumulate for all games played through the district championship (includes tournaments, non-district, and district contests). Each player accumulates points for each card that he / she receives in a contest.

Yellow Card = 1 point
Soft Red Card = 5 points
Red Card = 5 points

A soccer player can accumulate a maximum of 5 points in any one contest. Any accumulation of points, which are multiples of five or greater, will require that the player sit out the following number of games:
