Called the "District Directors Unified Syspensions for Checking from Behind, Boarding and Five Minute Head Contact penalties", this new rule adds game suspensions for players who accumulate 2 or more of these penalties over the course of the season. All games are included, scrimmages, league play and tournament, throughout the state. A PDF file with all of the details is included on the level pages on the website.
Suspension guidelines are no longer in effect for the 2012-13 season.
