The immediate penalty for receiving a red card is suspension from the game in question.

The league and referees reserve the right to adapt league rules to fit expected or unexpected situations resulting from weather, player/team conduct, and field conditions to ensure the safety of all players and to maintain the integrity of the league. For example, minutes for a game may be reduced if conditions are wet or muddy in order to prevent or lessen the deterioration of the field. Also, referees may stop or conclude a game at any point due to weather or poor sportsmanship by players.

In case of inclement weather, assume game will be played unless captains receive notice from the league to the contrary.
