Sin Bins - Gloucestershire FA

[Harey]

Hi,

My son has been told that Sin Bins no longer apply (youth football, Gloucestershire FA) by his manager.

I thought Sin Bins were now in for good.

I can’t believe I missed something, or it was a 2019/20 season thing, or COVID related!

Anyone else?

Cheers
Chris

From a quick search they said from 19/20 so they would still be going but happy for someone to tell me I’m wrong if I am?! Was this his team manager or a team manager trying to get out of a punishment sin bin?

Thanks, I thought the same thing about the word from

it was his team manager at a training session.

Maybe I’m wrong would seem weird for them to do that and the sinbin is still here in my county - I’d email the RDO for your county and ask he’ll confirm for sure

Sin bins apply to all football across the whole country from Step 5 below, including veterans and youth.

Thanks. I took the initiative, and issued one this morning.
