THE Birdseye Sports Evesham Sunday League are part of the Football Association's pilot sin-bin scheme.

They are one of 32 nationally at grassroots level and one of two adult leagues in Worcestershire to be part of the programme alongside the Mid-West Counties Female League.

The FA are attempting to address the ongoing problems of dissent towards match officials.

All Evesham league clubs and referees have been briefed in advance ahead of this weekend's kick-off.

Where a referee deems any dissent warrants a yellow card the player will leave the field for 10 minutes with no substitute allowed.

Should the same player warrant a further yellow for dissent he will again leave the field and be unable to return but a substitute can take his place.
