SYHA Time Clock Operation Instructions

Penalty occurs on players from both teams
– offsetting or coincidental
penalties
•
Do not put anything on the scoreboard.
•
Notify penalty box attendants as to the time the penalty expires, usually in 2
minutes. Both players are released from the penalty box on the first stoppage of
play after the 2 minutes have expired.
•
Only score sheet has infraction and time of infraction recorded.
Major penalty (ex. checking from behind)
Often referred to as
a “10 & 2” because an additional player from the penalized team
must spends 2:00 (2 minutes) in the Penalty Box along with the penalized player. The
major penalized player then spends an ADDITIONAL 10 minutes in the penalty box
following the expiration of the 2:00 minute penalty for a total of 12 minutes in the penalty
box.
Put 2:00 minute penalty on the scoreboard, for the HOME or GUEST team as noted
above and treat as a minor penalty.
What to do if you forgot to disable the penalty clocks between periods:
Look at score sheet
– it will have the time of the infraction.
Compute penalty time remaining.
When the buzzer goes off, set the time clock for the new period, then push the
“Home”
or “Guest” player penalty button, push ‘Enter’ twice, then manually enter the correct time.
See Penalties section above.
