Upcoming Suspensions
As of April 7, 2025.
Where a player plays in five (5) consecutive league matches, either as a starter or a substitute, without receiving a yellow card or red card or other discipline sanction, the player’s yellow card accumulation total will automatically be reduced by one yellow card. This is known as the Good Behaviour Incentive. The Good Behaviour Incentive does not apply to cautions received in the Canadian Championship.
Yellow card accumulation for players was reset at the end of the 2024 CPL Regular Season on Saturday, Oct. 19.
