- The game clock stops when a:
- Goal is scored
- Ref cards a player
- Player is seriously injured
- Substitution/s occur
- Refs can still add overtime minutes if the half is scoreless or tied.
- A ref can be subbed at half time (or full time if going into extra time) with mutual consent of both managers.
- Penalty Shootouts occur before the extra time. Results are only used if a tie remains after extra time ends.
- If a goalkeeper is sent off resulting in a penalty, then a sub keeper can not come until after the penalty has been taken.
- Introduction of a “White Card” which leads to a temporary removal of the offending player from the game between 5 to 10 minutes depending on the Ref’s discretion.
- Modified Free Substitution System
- A team can only substitute a player/players when their is a stoppage in play where they maintain possession (Throw ins, Corner Kicks, Penalty Kicks, Indirect or Direct Free Kicks, Goal Kicks)
- Substitutions cannot occur at Halftime Kickoff or for a Drop Ball.
- A player who is subbed off during a half cannot be subbed back on until the next half (this counts for extra time halves)
- Player’s who receive a White Card can be subbed off but can not be subbed back on.
- Attacking player to be ruled onside if any part of his body is level with the second-to-last defender.
- Bench size increased to 11.
- Games cannot end in a scoreless draw. If after 90 minutes the game is scoreless it goes into Extra time with a preceding Penalty Shootout if Extra Time leads to no goals.
