Clubs playing at Steps 5, 6 & 7 of the National League System are dealt with under a match-based suspension system in line with football played above that level.
Clubs playing outside the National League System, including Youth and Sunday football, will continue to be dealt with according to a time-based suspension system.
If a player participates at both levels then the punishment will be based on the level at which they were playing.
