Go to Post I heard a Lou Holtz quote as an answer to the question of "how do you motivate the unmotivated". He said " You eliminate those who are not motivated." - Scott Ritchie [more]

Re: Notifying teams of yellow/red cards

The procedures for referees notifying teams of yellow and red cards is explicitly called out in rules T06, T08, and T11 in section 5.5.4 of the manual. (See below.)

T07 also points out how teams should be reminded of a prior yellow card.

The referees should be following that section of the rules, in the same way that teams are expected to follow the rules.

Quote:
5.5.4 Yellow and Red Card Rules

<T06> The Head Referee may assign a YELLOW CARD as a warning of egregious ROBOT or TEAM member behavior at the ARENA. A YELLOW CARD will be indicated by the Head Referee standing in front of the TEAM’S PLAYER STATION and holding a yellow card in the air after the completion of the MATCH.

<T07> Once a TEAM receives a YELLOW CARD, its team number will be colored yellow on the audience screen at the beginning of all subsequent MATCHES as a reminder to the TEAM, the referees, and the audience that they have been issued a YELLOW CARD.

<T08> A TEAM will be issued a RED CARD (disqualification) in any subsequent MATCH that they receive an additional YELLOW CARD. This will occur after the completion of the MATCH. A RED CARD will be indicated by the Head Referee standing in front of the TEAM’S PLAYER STATION and holding a yellow card and red card in the air simultaneously. The TEAM will still carry their YELLOW CARD into subsequent matches.

<T11> If a TEAM is disqualified during a MATCH for a reason other than receiving an additional YELLOW CARD, they will receive a RED CARD. This will occur after the completion of a MATCH and will be indicated by the Head Referee standing in front of the TEAM’S PLAYER STATION and holding a red card in the air.
