Stage 1 Warnings
Disciplinary action will now be taken for accumulated Stage One Warnings for technical area occupants.
This is similar to the current system that operates for players and cautions with automatic touchline bans imposed for accumulated warnings for technical area occupants.
Automatic suspensions will be triggered when an individual reaches the following thresholds:
| Number of Stage 1 Warnings | Suspension |
| 4 | 1 match |
| 8 | 2 matches |
| 12 | 3 matches |
| 16 | Misconduct charge and Regulatory Commission |
Suspensions which are imposed for reaching these thresholds in both first team competitive matches and Non First Team matches will commence with immediate effect.
