ADDITIONAL DISCIPLINARY RULES AND CODIFICATION OF PENALTIES INTENDED TO PRESERVE THE MENTALITY OF THE
LEAGUE WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF RESPECT AND FAIR PLAY.
A. OBVIOUSNESS / GESTURE / CHARACTERIZATION / INTIMIDATION
A1. Football player or team member (A’) who abuses in any language (@@ the…), intimidates (bullying), gestures, or
characterizes (stupid, etc.) and refers to a 3rd person (referee, opposing football player, team member, match official,
etc.) will be definitively expelled from the match, will be immediately removed from the field and will be banned for at
least the next 2 matches. In case he does not leave the field within 2 minutes, the game will be stopped permanently
and will be awarded in favor of the opposing team (3-0 A.A.). Even if such behavior does not come to the referee’s
attention, but the match official observes it, he is OBLIGED to inform the referee immediately and from then on, the
referee should take appropriate action. This, in any case, is considered an “INDIVIDUAL INCIDENT”.
A2. If there is at least one (1) player or member of the team (B’) who silences the behavior of the player (A’) and either
defends him or continues the insults, bullying and characterizations against opposing players, members, referee or
match official the game is AUTOMATICALLY STOPPED, at the expense of the offending team, the match sheet closes with
3-0 against them if the result is in their favor, a draw or in favor of the opponent with less than 2 goals lead and
everyone leaves the field. The players of the offending team will be punished as follows: A’ will be banned for at least
the next 2 games of his team as a suspension, as the A2 regulation provides, while B’ will be banned from at least the
next 4 games as he not only did not calm down his teammate as he should have, but at the same time multiplied the
“damage”. This, in any case, is considered an “EXTENDED EPISODE”.
A3. If there is a 3rd player or team member (C’) or more members in all the above incidents, as in the case of A2, the
game is AUTOMATICALLY STOPPED at the expense of the offending team, the match sheet closes with 3-0 against it and
everyone leaves the field. In this case, however, the incidents and riots are considered “WIDE SCALE”. In this case, the
punishments are not distributed to individuals (football players or members) but the ENTIRE TEAM is permanently and
irrevocably DISMISSED from the event.
* In the senior regulations, the existing score at the stoppage of the match remains as it is in the case where the team
not at fault for the stoppage (and not necessarily the conflict – tension) is greater than 3-0.
HITTING / STRIKING
B1. A football player or team member (A’) who raises hand (pushing, slapping, grabbing, punching, kicking, etc.), to a
teammate, opposing football player, team member, referee, match official, etc. regardless the reason, will be
immediately removed from the field and will be expelled from the competition permanently.
B2. A football player or team member (B’) who silences the behavior of A’ and equally participates in the episode by
raising hand (pushing, slapping, grabbing, punching, kicking, etc.), to a teammate, opposing football player, team
member, referee, match official, etc. will automatically condemn his ENTIRE TEAM to FINAL EXCLUSION from the
competition. Regarding the game, this is AUTOMATICALLY STOPPED against the offending team, the match sheet closes
with 3-0 against them and everyone leaves the field.
B3. If the incident involves at least 2 football players or members of each team, then both TEAMS are AUTOMATICALLY
excluded from the event, the game sheet closes for both (3-0 loss) and everyone leaves the field.
* In the senior regulations, the existing score at the stoppage of the match remains as it is in the case where the team
not at fault for the stoppage (and not necessarily the conflict – tension) is greater than 3-0.
SPECTATORS / FANS
All teams have full responsibility for both their accompanying members and their fans.
And while if a member of the team sitting on the bench or in the playing area of the stadium is subject to the above
penalties (A & B) if and when involved in an incident, the following applies to fans:
C1. In case they shout abusive slogans, throw firecrackers or objects in the surrounding area of the field, the referee is
obliged to stop the match and the players of the team to warn their fans that in the event of a repetition of the incident,
the match is permanently stopped at the expense of their team (3-0).
C2. In case they throw an object or a firecracker inside the field of play or shout an abusive slogan for the 2nd time (after
the stoppage), throw a firecracker or objects in the surrounding area of the field, then the referee is obliged to stop the
match automatically and close the game sheet with 3-0 at the expense of the team whose fans create uncontrollable
riots. In addition, they should not re-allow their fans to attend the stadium while a 3 points penalty deduction is applied
to the team.
C3. In case of entry of at least one (1) fan on the playing field, directed threateningly towards members of the opposing
team, referee or match official, either during the match or 5′ before or after the end of each match, then the game is
automatically stopped, game sheet with 3-0 at the expense of the team whose fans create uncontrollable riots and
incidents. In addition, the ENTIRE TEAM IS permanently and irrevocably DISMISSED from the league.
* In the senior regulations, the existing score at the stoppage of the match remains as it is in the case where the team
not at fault for the stoppage (and not necessarily the conflict – tension) is greater than 3-0.
