The 2024 MLS season will feature several new initiatives approved by Major League Soccer’s Board of Governors last week. For more information, visit MLSsoccer.com.
Off-Field Treatment Rule
The Off-Field Treatment Rule allows medical professionals time to assess and treat players off the field of play in a less pressurized environment.
If a player with a suspected injury remains on the ground for more than 15 seconds, the referee will stop play and wave the medical crew onto the field to evaluate the player. When safe, the player will be removed from the field and remain off the field for a minimum of two minutes for further assessment and treatment.
Exceptions to the Off-Field Treatment Rule include instances of potential head injury, goalkeeper injuries, serious medical events, and fouls resulting in yellow or red cards.
Timed Substitution Rule
Maximizing effective match time, the Timed Substitution Rule requires that a substituted player exit the field within 10 seconds. Failure to exit from any point on the field within the 10 seconds will cause the incoming player to wait for a 60-second holding period, before entering the game at the next stoppage. During the holding period and prior to the substitute entering, the team will play down a player. Exceptions to the rule include injury and goalkeeper substitutions.
In-Stadium VAR Announcements
Pending International Football Association Board approval, VAR decisions will be announced by the referee to fans in stadium and viewers at home.
Stoppage Time Clock
Scoreboard, videoboards, and/or stadium clocks will run until the completion of each half, including any additional time at the end of either the first or second half.
Return To Play Equity
Opposing players that simultaneously incur head injuries requiring off-field treatment, who are subsequently cleared to return to play, will return to the game at the same time, once both medical evaluations have been completed.
