Sport
A yellow card is used in many sports as a means of cautioning a player regarding his or her conduct, or indicating that a player is to receive a certain level of punishment. Examples include:
- Football (soccer): Indicates a caution to a player who has committed certain types of misconduct. A second yellow card in a match results in automatic send-off. For more details, see Misconduct (football).
- Rugby union and rugby league: The player is suspended from the game for 10 minutes (colloquially termed being sent to the sin bin).
- Fencing: A warning, nullifying the action just made by the fencer.
- Mixed Martial Arts promotion PRIDE: A warning, the third leads to disqualification.
- Australian Rules Football In leagues other than the AFL,when a player is reported, they are shown a yellow card, and are suspended from the game for 15 minutes. There are by far less yellow cards given out than in soccer.
