Persistent infringement or Foul tackle

Could you expand on what you mean by explaining that cards are part of the game? One thing I find difficult to get resources on are effective communication methods with players to maintain that mutual respect but also enforce the rules.

I sometimes use the following '10 Tips / Options" to give referees the best chance of delivering an overall outcome that is best for all:

1) Build rapport pre-match
2) Employ a 'winning smile'
3) Practice the 'Collina stare'
4) Quiet Word
5) Public Word
6) Involve the Captain
7) Yellow Card
8) Red Card
9) Threat of Abandonment
10) Abandonment

I don't normally get past number 3 because I have basically perfected it now . I have always been told about my facial expressions to be honest.
