sanctions

easter sunday began on a positive note. it was 3 nil to the blues as the injured ref arrived. and remarkably, there had been no ref to that point.
the score mounted to 4-1 in the second half as nicholas bemoaned as how he was having an "off" day. (even after nick scored, he still felt uncomfortable) then the screaming and mayhem began- the match became irretrievably lost. game was shortened and discipline dispensed according to:
LAW 12 – FOULS AND MISCONDUCT
Sending-off Offences
A player, substitute or substituted player is sent off if he commits any
of the following offences:
• serious foul play
• violent conduct
• spitting at an opponent or any other person
• using offensive, insulting or abusive language and/or gestures
• receiving a second caution in the same match
A player, substitute or substituted player who has been sent off must
leave the vicinity of the field of play and the technical area.

sanctions of one month to mike lockwood, two months to khalid, and 4 months to mo. one month equals 4 matches. etc.
the laws of the game must be respected. they must be enforced to insure our field permit. props to all who helped to calm the situation.
many players had great composure and demeanors. the majority enjoyed the friendly moments of sunday soccer.
look forward to next week!
