80 Playing Rules 2. Unlimited subs may be allowed for games that are played at club level within the county. The number of subs can be determined by the County Board. However, they cannot be less than 5. 3. A substitute shall NOT be allowed for a player who has been sent off by the referee during a game. However, where a player is ordered off in Normal Time, she may be replaced by a sub for Extra Time. 4. Where extra time is played in a game, a player sent to the sin bin for a first yellow card offence in normal time can be replaced by a substitute in extra time until she has served her ten minutes playing time in the sin bin. Should the sin binned player resume playing after her Sin Bin time has expired and having been replaced by a substitute for extra time, her team shall be deemed to have used a second substitute. A player sent off for 2 yellow card offences in Normal Time can be replaced for Extra Time. BLOOD RULE 1. A player who is bleeding, has blood on her body or playing attire, as a result of an injury sustained during play, shall, on the instructions of the referee, immediately leave the field of play to receive medical attention. She shall not return to the field of play until the bleeding has stopped, all blood has stopped, all blood cleaned off and the blood stained attire cleaned or replaced. 2. The injured area should be covered where possible. The injured player may be replaced by a Blood Substitute who shall notify the referee in writing, that she is a Blood Substitute. 3. The Blood Substitute shall NOT count as a substitute allowed under the normal substitution rules, if or when the injured player returns to the field, as a Direct Replacement for the player who replaced her. 4. Where the injured player returns to the field of play as a replacement for any other player, apart from the Blood Substitute that directly replaced her, her team shall be deemed to have used a Normal Substitution. 5. Where a Blood Substitution is sent off, her team shall substitute another player if they wish to bring the original player back onto the field of play. This shall NOT count as a Normal Substitution.
