7.1 Misconduct sanctions

[checked revision]

Latest revision as of 10:11, 22 March 2024

After a verbal warning for (minor) misconduct, the next level of warning is a yellow card'. This is issued against a particular player or official, but counts as a warning for the whole team. The next sanction for (minor) misconduct can then only be a red card (or more).

Important

No warning has to be issued before a sanction.

Players who are suspended or disqualified must be substituted. While a suspended player must go to the locker room for the rest of the set, a disqualified player must go to the locker room for the rest of the match.

Markedsentence

A yellow card can only be given once per match and team.

It is up to the referee to decide when warning or sanctions for any misconduct are issued. However, the following table can serve as a guide. Unsportsmanlike conduct and aggressive behavior should, in any case, be sanctioned accordingly.

Type	Occurrence	Person	Sanction	Card(s)	Consequence
misconduct	first time	any team member	penalty	red card	point/service to the opponent
misconduct	second time	the same team member	expulsion	yellow/red card in one hand	sub., must go to the locker room for the rest of the set
misconduct	third time	the same team member	disqualification	yellow/red card in two hands	sub., must go to the locker room for the rest of the match
offensive conduct	first time	any team member	expulsion	yellow/red card in one hand	sub., must go to the locker room for the rest of the set
offensive conduct	second time	the same team member	disqualification	yellow/red card in two hands	sub., must go to the locker room for the rest of the match
aggression	first time	any team member	disqualification	yellow/red card in two hands	sub., must go to the locker room for the rest of the match
