Tony Pierog Trophy Rules for 20010/11 season.

The scoring system for the Tony Pierog Fair Play Trophy has never been witten down and the trophy rules have been at the discretion of the General Secretary since its inception. Usually it has been based on cautions and sendiings off and referees committee appearances but this year other things such as late results etc. have been taken into account.

To make the system totally transparent the rules need to be added to the constitution. The following proposal was accepted by the member teams at the 2009 AGM and will be in force for the 2009/10 season onwards.

Points System for Fair Play Trophy

Caution 1 point

Sending off 1 point per game suspension

(related to sending off offence)

Player reaches 5 Cautions 3 points

Player reaches 10 Cautions 6 points

Player reaches 15 Cautions 10 points

Dated Suspension 1 point per week

(Maximum 50 points per offence)

Referee committee committee

citation that is upheld 5 points

Minor rule infringements

(late results, failure to

attend meetings etc.) 1 point per £1 fined

Any outstanding offences at the end of the current Season and not dealt with until the start of the forthcoming Season, the penalty points, shall be effective for the Season when the offence is dealt with.
