The exact violations that lead to an ejection vary depending upon the sport, but common causes for ejection include <a href="/wiki/Unsportsmanlike_conduct" title="Unsportsmanlike conduct">unsportsmanlike conduct</a>, violent acts against another participant that are beyond the sport's generally accepted standards for such acts, abuse against officials, violations of the sport's rules that the contest official deems to be egregious, or the use of an illegal substance to better a player's game. Most sports have provisions that allow players to be ejected, and many allow for the ejection of coaches, managers, or other non-playing personnel. In sports that use <a href="/wiki/Penalty_card" title="Penalty card">penalty cards</a>, a red card is often used to signal dismissals. In some sports, another player is permitted to enter the game in place of the player who has been ejected, but in others the team is required to continue the game with a reduced number of players. </p><p>The decision to eject a participant usually lies with one or more officials present at the contest (e.g., referees or umpires). In addition to removal from the contest, many sports leagues provide additional sanctions against participants who have been ejected, such as monetary fines or suspensions from future contests. </p><p>When the offender is ejected, they must leave the immediate playing area; in most cases, this means going to the locker room or other part of the venue out of sight of the playing area, or in extreme cases, leaving the facility grounds. In many youth sports leagues, ejected players are required to stay with their coach in the team area, or at least be supervised by an adult at whatever location the player is required to go. If a participant refuses to cooperate with an ejection, additional sanctions may be levied, such as forfeiture of the contest, monetary fines, or suspensions. Rarely, outside actions and sanctions from <a href="/wiki/Law_enforcement" title="Law enforcement">law enforcement</a> authorities may be required. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Conditions">Conditions</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ejection_(sports)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Conditions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Basketball">Basketball</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ejection_(sports)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Basketball"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/List_of_NBA_career_ejections_leaders" title="List of NBA career ejections leaders">List of NBA career ejections leaders</a></div> <p>In the <a href="/wiki/National_Basketball_Association" title="National Basketball Association">National Basketball Association</a> (NBA) and most other <a href="/wiki/Basketball" title="Basketball">basketball</a> games, a player or coach is ejected from the game if he accumulates two <a href="/wiki/Technical_foul" title="Technical foul">technical fouls</a> of an unsportsmanlike nature or "type 1" <a href="/wiki/Flagrant_foul" title="Flagrant foul">flagrant fouls</a> over the course of the game. Participants who commit a "type 2" <a href="/wiki/Flagrant_foul" title="Flagrant foul">flagrant foul</a> or intentionally enter the stands are ejected summarily regardless of the number of technical fouls accumulated. Ejected players/coaches must leave the court area for the remainder of play, and must do so immediately, or else risk even heavier fines/suspensions. In the NBA, an ejection will result in, at minimum, a $1,000 fine; an ejection for leaving the bench during a fight carries at least a one-game suspension as well. In domestic games, refusing to leave after being ejected can result in a player being put on report. If being put on report does not provide enough encouragement for a player to leave the court, the official may <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/forfeit" class="extiw" title="wiktionary:forfeit">award the game to the opposing team</a>, regardless of score. Players who incur 16 technical fouls in a single NBA season are automatically suspended for one game; an additional suspension is imposed for each increment of two thereafter. Should a player receive the 16th technical foul in the last regular-season game, he will be suspended for the first game in the next season, unless if his team is in the playoffs, when he will be suspended for the first playoff game. In the playoffs, players are suspended if they receive seven technical fouls. </p><p>A significant rule change was made in 1981 whereby the NBA eliminated the ejection of a coach for three technical fouls caused by an <a href="/wiki/Defensive_three-second_violation" title="Defensive three-second violation">illegal defense</a>. Also, in the NBA, ejections and suspensions are not permissible if a technical foul is caused by an excessive timeout, delay of game, accidental departure from the coach's box, the <a href="/wiki/Backboard_shattering" title="Backboard shattering">destruction of a backboard</a> caused by a play (such as a <a href="/wiki/Slam_dunk" title="Slam dunk">slam dunk</a>), defensive hanging on any part of the basket unit to successfully touch a ball (Rule 12), or any <a href="/wiki/Bonus_(basketball)" title="Bonus (basketball)">remaining in the game after six fouls when a team is out of players because of fouls, injuries, and ejections under Rule 3, Section I, paragraph b</a>.

Technical fouls in FIBA include swinging of elbows without contact and <a href="/wiki/Flop_(basketball)" title="Flop (basketball)">flopping</a>, which are not fouls in the NBA. A coach can be ejected upon having incurred two coach technical fouls, or a combination of three bench and coach technical fouls. There is no separation regarding a "non-unsportsmanlike conduct technical foul", as in the NBA, so two delay-of-game violations result in an ejection. </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/National_Federation_of_State_High_School_Associations" title="National Federation of State High School Associations">NFHS</a> contests, ejected players must remain on the team bench, so that they may continue to be supervised by a coach or other adult team representative. If an adult team representative other than the head coach, such as an adult assistant coach, can provide supervision from the court and to the locker room for the duration of the contest, the player may leave the visual confines of the playing area with this representative. </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/National_Collegiate_Athletic_Association" title="National Collegiate Athletic Association">National Collegiate Athletic Association</a> (NCAA) contests, ejected players are dismissed to the locker room. </p><p>In all cases and leagues, any requirement for an ejected player to remain on-site may be waived if the incident resulting in ejection requires intervention from law enforcement, such as where the ejected player has <a href="/wiki/Grievous_bodily_harm" title="Grievous bodily harm">grievously</a> <a href="/wiki/Assault" title="Assault">assaulted</a> a player, official, coach or spectator with purposeful intent. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Disqualification">Disqualification</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ejection_(sports)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Disqualification"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Basketball also features disqualification, also known as fouling out. A player who commits a certain number of <a href="/wiki/Foul_(basketball)" title="Foul (basketball)">personal fouls</a> in a game (five or six in most leagues), is removed from the game and is said to have "fouled out". Unlike ejection, disqualification is not considered a punitive action but rather a natural consequence of a very physical sport with many instances of contact. Disqualified players are permitted to remain on the bench with the team (instead of being sent to the locker room, as with an ejected player) and are not subject to any further penalties (such as fines or suspensions); they can resume play in their next game. The NBA all-time leader in disqualifications is <a href="/wiki/Vern_Mikkelsen" title="Vern Mikkelsen">Vern Mikkelsen</a>, who was disqualified 127 times in 631 games.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (June 2022)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup> In the NBA, a technical foul (which does not count towards suspension or ejection) is also assessed for re-entering a game after fouling out of a game in emergency situations listed in Rule 3, Section I when a team is reduced to five players. Once that occurs, a technical foul is charged if a player remains in the game after his sixth or subsequent foul, or as the last player to foul out, re-enters the game in case of injury to an eligible player that must be removed. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Baseball">Baseball</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ejection_(sports)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Baseball"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_umpiring_records#Ejections" class="mw-redirect" title="Major League Baseball umpiring records">Major League Baseball umpiring records § Ejections</a>, and <a href="/wiki/List_of_top_15_most_ejected_Major_League_Baseball_managers" class="mw-redirect" title="List of top 15 most ejected Major League Baseball managers">List of top 15 most ejected Major League Baseball managers</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Lance_Barksdale_ejection.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/Lance_Barksdale_ejection.jpg/180px-Lance_Barksdale_ejection.jpg" decoding="async" width="180" height="235" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/Lance_Barksdale_ejection.jpg/270px-Lance_Barksdale_ejection.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a4/Lance_Barksdale_ejection.jpg 2x" data-file-width="307" data-file-height="400" /></a><figcaption>Baseball umpire <a href="/wiki/Lance_Barksdale" title="Lance Barksdale">Lance Barksdale</a> signalling an ejection</figcaption></figure> <p>In baseball, each umpire has a considerable amount of discretion, and may eject any player, <a href="/wiki/Coach_(baseball)" title="Coach (baseball)">coach</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Manager_(baseball)" title="Manager (baseball)">manager</a> solely on his own judgment of <a href="/wiki/Unsportsmanlike_conduct" title="Unsportsmanlike conduct">unsportsmanlike conduct</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-901d_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-901d-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The ejectable offense may be an excessively heated or offensive argument with an umpire, <a href="/wiki/Interference_(baseball)" title="Interference (baseball)">offensive interference</a> (contact with the catcher on a play at the plate), malicious game play (especially pitchers <a href="/wiki/Beanball" title="Beanball">attempting to intentionally strike batters with the ball</a> or a manager or coach <a href="/wiki/Hit_by_pitch" title="Hit by pitch">ordering a pitcher to do so</a>),<sup id="cite_ref-802d_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-802d-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> illegally applying a foreign substance to a bat or otherwise tampering with a ball,<sup id="cite_ref-802a_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-802a-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> using a <a href="/wiki/Corked_bat" title="Corked bat">corked bat</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-606d_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-606d-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/Charging_the_mound" title="Charging the mound">charging the mound</a>, or otherwise fighting.

The umpire can signal an ejection by pointing to the dugout or waving his arm toward the dugout in a “throwing” motion, usually yelling at the ejected person to leave. Fans of a home team usually cheer when a player from the visiting team is ejected. Managers or other players usually come out of the dugout and push the offending player away so as to keep them from getting into more trouble with the umpire. Managers often are simultaneously ejected when attempting to protect a player or otherwise leaving the dugout during play. Once an ejection is called, the ejected person and other associated people usually continue yelling at the umpire, with more anger.

If a player incurs three game misconducts in a season, they will be given a one-match ban. The player must leave the ice immediately, and a substitute may take over. However, if any other penalties are incurred by the ejected player in the same incident, they must be served in the penalty box by the substituting player.

The only exception is if a match penalty is against a goaltender, in which case the replacement goaltender can enter the ice immediately and a non-goaltender player serves the penalties. Match penalties may also be automatically flagged for review and supplementary discipline, depending on the league or association.

Their team must play with one fewer defender until 20 seconds have elapsed or there is a change of possession, after which the ejected player or a substitute can reenter the game. These 6 vs 5 situations are often called "man up", "man down", or a "power play". Should any player acquire 3 personal fouls (penalties/ejections) the player must sit out for the remainder the game. If a player commits a foul within 5 meters of the goal that prevents a probable goal, the offense will be awarded a penalty shot. Ejections and penalties are also incurred due to interference of a play. For example, if an ordinary foul is called (one blast of whistle) and the defensive player does not disengage, an ejection can be incurred. If an ejected player fails to promptly make their way to the penalty box, the offensive team will be awarded a penalty shot. </p><p>A misconduct foul can be incurred for unacceptable language or disrespect, violence, persistent fouls, or taking part in the game after being excluded. Players in the water that acquire a misconduct foul (shown by circular hand motions by the referee) must sit out for the remainder of the game. Coaches and players on the bench may be removed by being awarded a red card. </p><p>A brutality, the most serious foul, occurs when a player strikes an opponent or official with malicious intent. The offending player is removed for the remainder of the game, and their team plays with one fewer player for a full 4 minutes. The player must also face further consequences according to their respective rulebook (NCAA, FINA, NFHS, etc.), usually involving a suspension from subsequent games. The severity of the penalty makes brutalities a very rare occurrence. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Field_lacrosse">Field lacrosse</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ejection_(sports)&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Field lacrosse"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In <a href="/wiki/Field_lacrosse" title="Field lacrosse">field lacrosse</a>, an ejection (expulsion foul) is issued for a severe penalty, such as fighting, <a href="/wiki/Bench-clearing_brawl" title="Bench-clearing brawl">leaving the bench to take part in a fight</a>, malicious hits, deliberately attempting to injure another player, blatant fouls at the end of or immediately following a game, or, in high school, receiving two unreleasable <a href="/wiki/Unsportsmanlike_conduct#Field_lacrosse" title="Unsportsmanlike conduct">unsportsmanlike conduct</a> penalties.
