Rule 4-2-4 Penalty 2(continued) • The coach shall also remove one field player for five minutes of elapsed playing time. The designated field player may properly substitute with another field player provided that the team plays short. • Rationale: To make the penalty for requesting the third time-out more of a punitive infraction to deter coaches from deploying gamesmanship tactics. This also brings the penalty in line with other yellow-card situations.
Rule 4-3-2 • Deleted entire article. To review a possible misapplication of the rules by an official, a coach immediately requests a time-out at the officials' table. The scorer immediately notifies the near official who shall grant the time-out as soon as it is appropriate to do so. • When the time-out is granted, the coach shall confer with both officials near the center of the field.
